Schifetto Carlofortino by iosto


Recommended Posts

Hello everybody
I decided to take a break for the construction of the Enterprize, a very complex job, due to the shorter time I have in this period.
At this time I decided to make a simpler model that I have wanted to build for years.
A typical boat of the Mediterranean, the schifetto carlofortino, a gozzo that has the characteristic of having the sides with curved rowlocks.
Originally these boats were used for coral fishing or fishing for fish and lobsters, or other transport for trade along the Mediterranean coasts.
Those for trade were larger in size, even at 18 meters.
Now many have been rebuilt for lateen sailing sport regattas, making them very beautiful with the use of precious woods such as teak, iroko and mahogany.

The Schifetto it is a small size leudo-like boat.

The leudo is a typical Ligurian boat much larger at least 18-20 m the wood is Swiss pear, but then it will be painted. the beams of the beams until only supported, then they are corrected, aligned and then glued and afterwards they made the cabin and the motor housing.

these photos are of a Carlofortino boat built on the island of San Pietro in the early 1900s and motorized in 1927 used for trade and then for the transport of minerals the photos are from 35 years ago today it no longer exists because it was destroyed by a fire,the keel of the boat was 18 m long, it was called Gina and was very similar to a Leudo in fact the inhabitants of Carloforte came to the island from Liguria and the colonies of Tabarka in 1700

Engine construction
The engine was made with forex and plasticard

Some parts of the starter, the wiring and the muffler with the exhaust are still missing.
After the top is treated with a tamyia gray primer, then filled and treated with white primer and then painted.
Thus it will be possible to take the exact measurements for the shaft line and the assembly of the propeller and the bridge with the motor housing.

The model will be covered and painted with antifouling as the photo of the " Mamma Rosa" , and will have mahogany sides. Through the hatch of the cabin it will be possible to see the interior. I would like to make a diorama with a shipyard and insert this model together with one under construction where you can see the frames on sight.

I've stocked up on lumber. Here in Italy you don't find much. In the past I bought from Crown Timberyard which has now closed or from Lumberyard. Browsing the net I found this site:

I made the structure in pear wood. I covered with some pear wood veneer. Then I covered with mahogany wood. Between one table and another I inserted some black cardboard. Then I'll proceed with the holes

Deck deck I used IROKO wood Very fibrous a little difficult to work with small thin pieces, but I wanted to have a color more like the real wood of the original bridge. To decrease the porosity I used a glue to transfer POTCH images. Applied then smoothed and re-applied, then I passed the wax.
