The Mayflower is famous for having been the ship which took along the first English pilgrims towards the American continent between September and November 1620. At the end of 66 days of sea, under conditions of average weather and stirring up comfort on board this heavy ship of round forms long of 39m, the passengers of the Mayflower were completely convinced to remain on their new ground of election and avoid a trip back. They founded the first English colonies in a place which they baptized New Plymouth.
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.
