Corel King of Prussia 1777 1:42 kit
Corel King of Prussia 1777 1:42 kit
1:42 scale model kit of the COREL King of Prussia from 1777, with which the famous smuggler John Carter sailed the waters of southern England. The boat was made of light pine, was very fast and had a low draft. Included in the package are wooden parts, rails and a number of fittings, rigging, canvas for sails and more. John Carter, who liked to be called the "King of Prussia", was probably the most famous and clever smuggler in Cornwall in the south of England. Carter's dominance at sea lasted from 1777 to 1807. After his death, his son William Richards followed in the footsteps of the notorious smuggler; "Prussian Bay" has retained its reputation as a dangerous smuggling spot.
