Model boat kit

Norden

Kit by Billing Boats

Norden represents the beach launched fishing boats built from about 1930 in the Danish villages of Klitmoeller and Vorupoer. That stretch of the Jutland coast has no harbour, so the boats are run up the beach and hauled clear of the surf by winch.

The 1:30 kit is a small model with a wooden hull, 34.5 cm long. It is rated Beginner, the first of Billing's four experience levels, and is often suggested as a first kit.
