Seaworthy Ship Kit: Bermuda

This model boat with a Bermuda sail rig is a favorite. The Bermuda rig, also known as jib headed, leg of mutton or marconi, was used by fisherman 200 years ago and is easily the most popular sail of modern yachting. The hull has square stern cut away aft. This product is sold as a model kit for you to enjoy building, not as a completed wood boat model. Made by a charming toy boat company based in the USA. The owner is a long-time Colorado resident and recently retired educator. Her love of sailing began early, culminating in a year-long adventure sailing across the Pacific Ocean and through the south seas. She is a retired science teacher, an avid woodworker, even building her own kayak, and currently serves on the board of The Rocky Mountain Wooden Boat School. Kit includes: 8 inch Pre-shaped Solid Wood Sailboat Hull Wooden Fin Keel Wooden Mast and Spar Pre-cut Poly Sail Illustrated Assembly and Sailing Instructions Cotton Rigging Line Rigging Tape Sandpaper Items not included: Scissors Paint or Permanent Markers
