SANTÍSIMA TRINIDAD<br />
1:90-SCALE MODEL<br />
OF THE MIGHTY<br />
SPANISH FLAGSHIP<br />
Dimensions<br />
Scale 1:90<br />
Height 810mm<br />
Width 415mm<br />
Length 1060mm<br />
The Santísima Trinidad was for a time the<br />
most heavily armed ship of the Age of Sail,<br />
with its armament of 140 guns distributed<br />
over four decks.<br />
This large, full-hull model is suitable for<br />
novices or more experienced builders.<br />
The hull uses plank-on-frame<br />
construction with pre-cut pieces for easy<br />
assembly, and various types of wood<br />
for a more natural coloured finish. The<br />
model is also fully rigged, including a full<br />
set of cloth sails and flags.<br />
The guns are modelled in metal and<br />
there are many other small details in<br />
brass and die-cast white metal.

Dimensions<br />

In addition to the full-hull model, you will build a fascinating<br />
cross-section of the area around the mainmast of the ship, at<br />
the same scale as the full model.<br />
This cross-section shows the inner workings of the ship and<br />
vividly illustrates life below decks, with guns and cargo visible<br />
on each level.

including the sails, rigging, metal parts and<br />
