Model Shipways 18th Century Longboat Wood Model Kit - Introduction to wood Ship modeling Sale MS1457. Length 24", Height 19". Scale 1:24 (24 times smaller than the original). The longboat was the largest boat aboard an 18th century warship and were always kept fully provisioned in case of an emergency. Longboats were carvel built with the planks meeting flush at the seams rather than overlapping. A full bow, high sides and fine aft lines made it seaworthy in heavy winds and steep waves. The interior was fitted with thwarts to accommodate eight to ten oarsmen. The Captain's Longboat usually carried a small cannon mounted on the bow and swivel guns along the bulwarks. The Armed Longboat is not an overnight build. In fact, expect to invest 30 hours or more to do it right. We have replicated every plank and beam as well as the metal parts and the rig. There is nothing amateurish about this kit. Every detail here was present in the original Armed Longboat. We take you step by step through the building process with a 48-page instruction manual and over 125 color photos. Our longboat is a true plank-on-frame model, built just like the real longboats of the 18th century. The kit uses the finest laser cut basswood (not balsa) for keel, ribs, locker, floorboards and thwarts. Other materials include brass strips, belaying pins, eyebolts & nails, wooden blocks & deadeyes, black & tan rigging line in five diameters and a cast metal anchor. 3 sheets of 34 x 44" true-to-model sized plans. 48-page instruction book with 130 color photos address every detail.
