Model boat kit
Wasa
Kit by Corel
Wasa was a 64 gun Swedish royal warship that heeled over in a gust and sank near Stockholm on 10 August 1628, the day she was launched; the hull was later raised and is displayed in the Vasa Museum.
Corel's 1:75 kit (SM13) is based on the museum's published reconstructions, with pre cut parts and 11 sheets of plans. Its decoration of more than 350 figures was sculpted by V. Marino of Milan.
What building a Wasa actually takes
Medians from the build logs kept on this site, not the designer’s estimate. Nobody has logged this boat here yet, so they are empty until the first builder does.
Those medians firm up as more people log this boat.
