Mamoli America 1851 1:66 kit
Mamoli America 1851 1:66 kit
The MAMOLI America kit is in 1:66 scale and dates from 1851. The yacht America was built in 1851 at the William Brown shipyard in New York. On 22 August she completed a memorable race around the Isle of Wight. In the package are wooden parts, rails and many fittings, rigging, plans and Czech instructions. America's hull was a real novelty for its time, especially her sleek design and low waterline. Compared to other yachts of the time, the fine lines, low draft and special sail shape made of extremely light cotton fabric were real innovations. To date, the "Cup der 100 Guineen" - later called the "America's Cup" - is considered the most important regatta in the world. The Kit is manufactured today using modern laser technology, which ensures high precision assembly of components. Double formwork is standard. Includes many fittings in cast metal or wood. Mamoli boat models have been popular for many years. A wide range of different model types and classic materials characterise this series.
