dutch statenjacht

[shipahoy]

just finished my scratch-built version of a dutch statenjacht from plans by amati. with the ship at 90% complete i discovered that the plans by amati were based upon a book and drawings that are now considered to be not historicaly correct ( mostly because of the stern quarter galleries ) and should not be trusted as accurate anyway that is why the ship shall remain nameless. it has already been sold at a discount .

It may not be historically accurate but it is pretty close. When I look at my Statenjacht Utrecht it is very similar. Yours is beautifully built. It is a nice model.
