Wow! Outstanding, Vintage Sloop Schooner from mid 1970's, collector auction find.
This outstanding, mint condition yacht is adorned with copper and brass accents and fittings. The hunter green hull and red keel set this boat off and are the original colors. This collector piece is all original and handmade. I've not seen a model like this with so much copper and brass!
We cleaned the original sails and rigging and also restored the model stand.
The yacht measures 31"L x30"H x5.5"W. A very nice medium sized antique that will compliment any room in the house. What a great gift for someone who loves the ocean and nautical theme and is also difficult to buy for. All of our restored models are "One of a kind" so you may want to consider buying pre-Christmas or birthday.
As with all of our model yachts, we partially disassemble some rigging for safe, free shipment.
We will include minor assembly instructions and also send pictures to assist you in minor assembly of rigging and sails.
Thank you!
