Features

  • The Bluenose model yacht measures 24"L x 20"H

  • The model wood yacht is shipped fully assembled, ready to be displayed. Imagine this exquisite piece of art glimmering in your home or office! Great Gift Item!

  • The wooden model yacht sits perfectly on the included base, which is made of a high-quality, conditioned wood.

  • The wood yacht model is built from scratch by experienced master artisans and is not from any sort of kit. To create the subtle details and definitions of the deck and hull, the plank on frame method of construction is used, which requires hundreds of hours of pain-staking, detailed work.

  • The highest quality, rare woods (including Ebony, Rosewood, Blackwood, Mahogany, Jack wood, and Sycamore) used to construct our models are subjected to specific seasoning procedures to ensure that the model will withstand severe climate and never warp or split.

  • The quality Honduras mahogany and fine cherry wood are of the highest caliber and generally used for real boats are used on our wooden yacht models.

  • Our model yachts are highly polished to a glossy smoothness along with meticulous details that match the perfection of the real thing. Numerous layers of paint and varnish are painstakingly applied, with each layer dried and smoothed through sanding before application of the next.

  • Details such as fittings, trimmings, steering wheels, and propellers are made sculpted brass or stainless steel. These metal pieces are then polished for perfect gold and metallic tones.

  • Extensive research is required to build each boat model according to scale, using various pictures, original plans, drawings, and digital imaging.

  • Each wooden model ship is examined during various processes of manufacturing and shipment to ensure the highest quality and accuracy possible for your investment.

History

Launched in Lunenburg, Nova Scotia on March 26, 1921, the Bluenose was used not only as a racing ship bu as a cod-fishing schooner. The Bluenose was the response to a Nova Scotian defeat in a race for schooners established by the Halifax Herald newspaper in 1920. After fishing season, the Bluenose defeated the ship Elsie from Gloucester, Massachusetts, returning the trophy to Nova Scotia. During the next 17 years, the Bluenose faced no North American challengers.
