Hereby my last three-masted ship model. It is 125 feet long fluit for Atlantic shipping. The setting of the sails was inspired by a Van de Velde painting of de Liefde, a man-of-war shortly before it was burned in the Four days battle (1666). The name of the fluit is 'Abraham's offering', after an original fluit's taffrail that is kept somewhere in Denmark.
Together with three other models this one will go to museum Kaap Skil in the isle of Texel.
