This is a stunning model Easy to build - looks superb and easy to sail - The inspiration for this vintage boat was drawn from the racing boats of the Thirties. The hull is made of a very strong shock-resistant plastic material, while the masts are in mahogany wood and have an inner core in aluminium, so as to be very strong and always perfectly straight. The deck has been cut with a laser beam, all the handrails and superstructures are made of mahogany wood, the plastic fittings need to be painted according to one’s mood and the sails are in Dacron. Two plywood frames, which need to be assembled inside the hull, acts as a stiffener and as a support to the servo control mounting plate and, at the same time, delimit the ballast compartment. To make the assembly extremely easy, the deck details are made up of small pre-shaped mahogany wood blocks, therefore their assembly is quick, fun and does not require special assembling skills. To sail, we suggest a three-channel radio control equipped with two servo controls and one winch (it is not included in the assembly kit) or, else, a two-channel radio control with a maxi servo for the sails (still not included in the assembly kit). The assembly kit contains all the fittings required to assemble the model, as well as the assembly drawings and the relevant instructions with STEP BY STEP PHOTOS in four languages: Italian, English, French and German. |
