Amerigo Vespucci curious that there is a Dutch text on the different pages, but easy! many brass parts, but moderately explained in detail. What is stated as WALNUT, is NOT present as such, so that is blown biting. Whether everything is complete , will have to be seen during construction. The order via the site was rather difficult because it was not clearly indicated how you could specify the payment. By the end of the day, just click on save!! it eventually worked. *

A. Anonymous royal caroline excellent product, now it's my turn. *
A. Anonymous Victory Hello everyone, having built fifteen models in my life, after a long break I got back to it. I note that after so many years the kits are still identical except for a few details. The structure of the boat is basic, if you want to get closer to the truth you have to improve. I think that at this price (€549) manufacturers could make a little extra effort. For the rest, the fittings are of good quality and the plans are precise and 1001 models is a nice and serious store. Therefore I remain on a good impression. See you soon ! *
