Parts are cut into thin birch sheets and released by hand, then slotted together following a picture booklet. The finished sailing ship carries three masts with fabric-look sails and sits on a shaped wooden cradle. Expect four to six hours of building, spread over a few sittings.

Care & Use
Ease stubborn parts with the sanding stick instead of forcing them, as thin plywood splits along the grain and a broken tab cannot be replaced. Keep the finished ship away from damp air, which softens the slot joints and lets the masts drop.
