Kit of a static model of the sailing ship AMATI Endeavor from 1934 in a scale of 1:80. The kit contains a prefabricated plastic hull made of polystyrene. The prefabricated hull greatly reduces construction time. It also eliminates the problems that can occur when skinning the hull. The superstructure, mast and deck are wooden. Many brass and wooden parts are also included. To complete the model, the model is completed with a printed tarpaulin and a buildable stand.
The schooner Endeavor made her mark by winning the first two races of the America's Cup. The third race promised to be the most exciting. But fate played with the crew and its owner Sir Thomas Sopwith lost this race against the Rainbow ship.

Although it is a model for beginner modellers, it is necessary to keep in mind that a certain manual skill of the builder and the ability to solve construction problems are assumed. The instructions determine the construction procedure, but cannot include the technology of processing materials, the method of gluing, staining, sanding or painting. These are classic modeling procedures that everyone chooses according to their possibilities and habits.
The model does not have an excess of details, it is simpler, therefore significantly less laborious and time-consuming, thanks to the simpler construction procedure, it should be assembled by an average skilled modeler or children in modeling circles.
For construction, we recommend buying tools, glue and paints.
Building model ships requires the right tools. We recommend an excellent set of Modelcraft tools for ship modelers (set of 12 pieces), or Modelcraft tools for modelers (set of 18 pieces). We also recommend the purchase of nylon clamps and indispensable modeling pins. We recommend a modeling mat for editing, precise cutting, gluing parts and also as table protection.
For gluing, we recommend universal dispersion glue and Robitronic instant glue medium 20ml. We recommend acrylic enamel paints for coloring. Apply colors with quality brushes (flat brushes for surfaces, round brushes for details).
