Description:
H.M.S. Victory, Adm. Horatio Nelson’s flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805, is now available as a museum-quality, FULLY ASSEMBLED model. Each one has a unique serial number etched into the hull, which allows us to identify production date, material used and all other production information of a model. Master craftsmen using historical photographs, drawings or original plans meticulously handcraft these highly detailed wood models from scratch. They are built to scale with high-grade wood such as: western red cedar, rosewood, and mahogany. They are 100% hand built individually using plank-on-frame construction method and are similar to the building of actual ships. Each model requires hundreds of hours to finish and must go through a demanding quality control process before leaving the workshop. This amazing replica of the H.M.S. Victory model features plank on frame, three decks, and three ferocious rows of metal cannons on each side of the ship. The front bowsprit and three large masts are connected securely using advanced rigging and lines painstakingly knotted and fastened by hand. Each yard has an attached hand-stitched rolled-up sails made of fine linen. Metal anchors and a wooden rudder are visible on the front and rear of the ship. On the deck, there are authentic hand-built lifeboats with ribs and planks, stationed metal cannons, metal steering wheels, wooden crane, captain’s dining and sleeping cabin, and many other handcrafted ornaments. There is also an exquisite detailed admiral’s quarter on the stern with beautiful metal lanterns, handcrafted brass statues and ornaments, and a wooden flag pole. This model comes standard with a solid wood base and brass nameplate. It’ll make a perfect gift for home or office decorator, boat enthusiast or passionate collector.

History:
HMS Victory, launched at Chatham in 1765, was a 100-gun ship of the line with a length of 227.5 ft overall (69.34 m), a displacement of 3500 tons, and a crew of more than 800 men.
On Oct. 21, 1805, at the Battle of Trafalgar, twenty-seven British ships of the line led by Admiral Lord Nelson aboard HMS Victory defeated thirty-three French and Spanish ships of the line under French Admiral Villeneuve. The battle took place in the Atlantic Ocean off the southwest coast of Spain, just west of Cape Trafalgar. The Franco-Spanish fleet lost twenty-two ships and the British lost none.
In the 1920s, HMS Victory was put in a dry dock and restored to her condition under Nelson. She was unveiled to the public in all her glory by King George V on 17 July 1928 at Portsmouth. She retains her status as a fully commissioned ship in the Royal Navy and serves as the flagship of the Naval Home Command, but to her visitors, she remains a precious museum and testament to Britain’s naval past.

Beautiful but not accurate Reviewed by: Linmorgan , Date: 5/4/2024 , Source: Amazon
Comment: This is a case of seeing something that is stunning at first sight but upon closer inspection a bit disappointing.
The most glaring problem with the ship is that the gun ports are metal castings slipped into the cutouts. Gun ports did not have framing of any kind. Take note of the stern guns pointing straight down into the water! There is no binnacle. The ship's wheel is not under cover of the poop deck. There are no signal flag pigeonholes at the stern. The Victory had no cutter suspended at the stern of the boat. There are only two boats on the quarter deck. There should be four of varying sizes. It should have a 34 ft launch, a 32 ft barge, a 28 ft pinnace, and an 18 ft cutter. The 2 heads at the bow are in the wrong position. There should be six more open heads. There are no double-door chase ports.
For the money it should be more accurate in my opinion. However, if you're not a stickler for accuracy, this ship and other ships by this company are quite beautiful.

Beautiful model Reviewed by: John Cates , Date: 7/26/2023 , Source: Amazon
Comment: My model arrived well packaged considering it came all the way from Viet Nam. Very detailed and intricate rigging. The instructions for mounting the bow sprit was a little confusing but I was able to figure it out. Nice model.

Spectacular detail and flawless condition! Worth every penny! Reviewed by: Mike P. , Date: 12/8/2021 , Source: Amazon
Comment: The photos in the ad simply don't do this model justice...the model wins at every angle! I still find myself staring at the fine details of the HMS Victory and imagining what it must have been like to man her decks myself! I'm also still finding tiny flakes of styro-foam packaging material clinging to tight spaces in the ship. My only advise; shop around...prices vary widely. Also, take your time un-boxing this baby and use the right tools...not doing so could harm you and/or the model. Cheers, Mike.
