This is my first post on sos so a bit of a learning curve.
i found this kit as part of a job lot from ebay.
The hull frames and other bits were missing but luckily there were good plans.
A bit of research on the internet found bsome info on the 17th century Dutch Galoit Ships. These ships were flat bottomed, shallow draft ideal for trading in the North and Baltic seas.
I think this model is quite rare. One difficulty to overcome because the instructions are in French. However Google translate came to the rescue.
