Thanasis Posted October 11, 2020 #1 Posted October 11, 2020 Hello. The below photo was taken in port of Chania (Crete-Greece) at early of 20th century. Is there anyone who might have come across this kind of rigging from Black Sea to Mediterranean. Many thanks https://www.naftotopos.gr/index.php/el/ There are no bad or good model makers. There are only less or more experienced.

Louie da fly Posted October 11, 2020 #2 Posted October 11, 2020 Yes, it appears to be a similar rig to a Maltese Luzzu, though your photo shows only one diagonal sprit per mast. (Apparently these vessels no longer exist - a pity, they're really cool). mtaylor 1 It's not really a ship model unless you've bled on it.

Thanasis Posted October 11, 2020 Author #3 Posted October 11, 2020 I would be pretty fortunate if there was any relation with any Malta's boat, since I'm searching for this.🙂 However, I'm afraid that the two masts in sequence (spritsails) do not suggest either Luzzu or Speronara (Xprunara) Maltese boats.
