[Robby The Brobot]

Hello, wondering if anyone has some good recommendations for a 1800's style windjammer or clipper ship kits? Thanks!

Wood, plastic, or card?

Wood kits for ships of that era are rather few in number. Model Shipways has one of Flying Fish, and a couple of the European companies offer either Cutty Sark or Flying Cloud. MarisStella has a nice kit of the barque Stefano. There are also a few kits of some of the 20th-century sail training ships as well. But that's about it.

Well that is a really nice looking ship kit, however that price tag is a bit high 😣. But looks like a nice finished model.

Those ships look good. How do these kits compare to something cheaper like occre? I was lookin at their endurance model, however the only kit ive worked on so far for model ships is the occre buccaneer.

The Mamoli/Dusek Flying Cloud might be another option.
