Doris Saint-Malo. 1:20 Wooden Model Fishing Boat Kit (19010)

HISTORY OF FRENCH DORIS SAINT-MALO

Discover the 2023 wooden model ship of the French Doris Saint-Malo. This Canadian fishing boat was used on the Massachusetts and Nova Scotia schooners, but lately it was introduced in France, Spain and Portugal.

The ship type Doris was transported on its mother ship, usually a schooner. On its roof, the Doris travelled stacked and were used by one or two crew on the cod banks of Newfoundland to fish.

During the day, they returned to the mother ship several times to unload their catches. Due to their strength, low cost and ease of stowage, the Doris continued to be used as working boats on sailboats and pleasure ships.

CONTENTS OF DRAKKAR VIKING MODEL SHIP KIT

Designed entirely on 3D, the renewed wooden model of the Viking at 1:75 scale includes all the parts of its hull cut by laser on board of first quality linden. This ensures a precise and pleasant assembly. The hull is double-lined: a first with birch ladles and a second lining with sapelly veneer. The second liner is designed for beginners modelers because it allows hiding the small errors of the first liner.

The Viking modeling kit also includes wood and metal decorations (like the two dragon heads) that give a touch of distinction to the model. We have also included an exhibition base and a nameplate for the new Viking. A tradition on this company, a beautiful pre-sewn color sail, ready to be fixed to the stick. We have made great efforts also with the instructions to assemble the ship model of the Viking.
