1/350 Amerigo Vespucci

This ship was named after the Italian cartographer and explorer for whom the New World was named. A three-masted sailing ship, it was launched in 1931, and is now a training ship for the Italian Naval Academy. Its style is reminiscent of a 19th warship.

The model can be built with a full hull, or can be displayed on its waterline. A stand is included.

The intricate gold carving on the bow is depicted on the detailed decal.

Lifeboats, davits, and full-blown sails are part of this attractive model, and detailed rigging instructions are included.



This plastic model kit requires plastic cement and paint for assembly, and they are sold separately.
