A brickA Brig-Goelette (also called brigantin) is a sailing ship with two masts with a foresail mast and a great mast (on the back). A brig being generally veiled with two square sails, the schooner-brig only has on the great mast a very large fore-and-aft sail (brigantine) and possibly a sail of arrow and veils of stay. With a lengthened bowsprit, it could carry very important surfaces of veils.(source: wikipedia) of 41 m to the floating, and 56.7 m overall, the Ouragan (Hurricane) was a fine and fast ship of the beginning of the XIXth century. Draft of the slaves having been abolished in Europe in 1815, but the traffic remaining in fact considerable towards the USA and Brazil until 1860, these ships had to be faster and better designed than those of the military forces to escape them. Their qualities of navigation opened fortunately other uses to them.
The model
This model of boat is of museum quality. It is manufactured by hand by Malagasy craftsmen under the direction of Herve Scrive. For an optimal fidelity to the model, the construction of the ship model uses the process of assembly of broadsides on couples (the boards forming the hull are fixed on the couples forming the internal frame of the ship). The bridge of the boat is lathed as on a full scale boat. The hull and the bridge are varnished in several layers. The vessel is made out of exotic wood chosen for their qualities in model making and for their colors.
Each ship model is numbered and accompanied by a historical summary engraved on wood.
This model of boat, assembled by hand during tens or of hundreds of hours of craftmen specialized in hulls manufacturing, rigging, installation of veils etc, is not a kit, but is fully assembled and ready to be admired.
