Build that ship on the request of the Lady of a friend
Was probably almost the easiest one I have build so far
Sorry that I don’t have a lots of photo to show
At the time I build it was not part with any forum and did not expect to do an extensive log of it
The kit and instruction where first class
For that kit I use the sail supply with the kit as they were very good
Got a little problem with some metal decoration that the mould got a bit distortion but it was easy to correct
So overall it was a good kit to build
Now in the office of my friend and he is proud to show it
Wiki:
HMY Mary was the first
Royal Yacht of the
Royal Navy. She was built in 1660 by the
Dutch East India Company. Then she was purchased by the
City of Amsterdam and given to
King Charles II, on the restoration of the monarchy, as part of the
Dutch Gift. She struck rocks off
Anglesey in thick fog on 25 March 1675 while en route from Dublin to Chester. Although 39 of 74 crew and passengers managed to get to safety, the wreck quickly broke up. The remains (bronze cannon) were independently discovered by two different diving groups in July 1971. After looters started to remove guns from the site, a rescue operation was organized and the remaining guns and other artefacts were taken to the Merseyside Museums for conservation and display. After the passing of the
Protection of Wrecks Act 1973, she was designated as a protected site on 20 January 1974.
