Trotamares - premium model ship kit by Mantua

Description

Built in Spain in 1958, this old fishing boat had seen better and more prosperous days. Then, with equal doses of love, patience and hard work, its owners restored it as a luxury charter yacht. Today, Trotamares is a familiar sight, whether moored at the docks of Montecarlo, or sailing the turquoise waters of the French Riviera. This is a plank-on-bulkhead kit, featuring lost wax brass castings, walnut or lime planking, wooden masts and spars, brass and walnut fittings, etched brass details, rigging cord, and a silk flag. All sheet ply sections are laser cut for museum quality accuracy. At Ages of Sail, our model ship kits are always of the highest quality available, with laser-cut parts and ornamentation made from the finest materials for an authentic look. This brand new kit comes with detailed English instructions, though the "Trotamares" is best for intermediate to advanced builders!
