You would expect a ship model with this amount of detail to require many hours of building - but you'll be pleasantly surprised to find that virtually all of the assembly of our Sailing Pirate Galleon has already been done. Another surprise is that it's as sea-worthy as it is display-worthy! Scale modelers and R/C sailors alike will be drawn to the elegance - and sail-ability - of this stunning model - You have to see the exquisite scale detail to believe it!
- ·A fully assembled fiberglass hull, painted and ready to run!
- Only 15 minutes of final assembly before having an elegant ship worthy of static display - OR ready for radio control action!
Special polycarbonate strips inserted into sleeves give the sails a "wind-filled" appearance for static display; the strips are removed and the sails easily rolled up and secured for taking out on the water. The Model is Sail Assisted this means that the sails are functional and work with the electric motor to provide power. All the Standing Rigging is adjustable and uses replica Blocks. The running Rigging is free and allows the Yards and sails to move with the motion of the model. The Model is Rigged as a 1650-1700 Barque and is typical of the type of ship used for commerce and by pirates from europe to the carribian. It is a easy project to add more detail in to the model and I am working on adding a better sail spread with Topsails and stay sailsThe level of detail is excellent as you can see .T even the gun deck boasts twelve cannons, six on each side. A custom-finished stand with name plate lets you display your model proudly. A 3-pound running keel is included for sailing the Galleon on the water, and attaches easily with a thumbscrew. A special running stand is also supplied for holding the model with the keel attached. Underneath the center hatch is a roomy compartment for holding the 550 motor and all on-board electronics. At 42" tall and over 40" in length, the King's Ransom is an impressive display model - and will dominate on the water as well! On the water the model its very stable - Under full throttle she moves too fast for scale speed however gentle throttle and scale sailing means you willl have a excellent model This is a large model at over 1meter long and nearly a 1.5meters from the keel to the top of the main mast she easly dismantles for transport Extras will include a 25pc Figure set, Different sail and Masts and of course a sound system with pirate and cannon sounds Length: 40.5 in (1029 mm)
