Woody Joe Ship in a Bottle No. 2: Santa Maria Wooden Model Assembly Kit
This was the largest sailing ship used on Christopher Columbus's first transatlantic voyage in 1492.
He was part of a fleet of three ships on this voyage, the other two being caravels, the Pinta and the Niña.
Both ships were secondhand and not built for the purpose of exploration.
The Santa Maria was a type of sailing ship called a nao, with a triangular forecastle at the bow, a deck, and three masts.
It successfully crossed the Atlantic and reached the Bahamas, but on December 24, 1492, during the expedition, it ran aground on Hispaniola and was dismantled. The usable timber was used as material for a fort.
Woody Joe's ship in a bottle was designed with a properly divided hull, and the difficult task of tensioning ropes was performed outside the bottle as much as possible. The mast yard was folded and inserted.
Even experienced model makers find it difficult to create a ship in a bottle, but we've made it easy for anyone to enjoy.
The hull is processed using the latest laser cutting technology, accurately recreating the ship's distinctive features.
We're confident that the finished product will become a valuable addition to your collection.
