Xebec Wooden Pirate Model Ship 35"

This handcrafted, expert level, highly detailed, museum quality, Xebec ship model is Brand New, fully assembled and ready for display (not a kit).

This pirate ship model was specially designed & built by the plank on frame method (joining multiple small pieces of wood like Rosewood, Mahogany, Teak and other exotic tropical wood together on the hull). The pirate ship model is built exactly to scale as the original Xebec was with many details. The task required skillful craftsmen hundreds of hours to accomplish.

Corsair Pirate Lore: The three masted Xebec with its lateen sails was used for centuries in the Mediteranean as a merchant ship because of its speed and shallow draught. It was not long before Corsairs, the pirates of the Mediteranean, decided on the Xebec as their vessel of choice for lighting fast attacks on heavier ladened merchant ships. With its fourteen cannons slug low in the waists, the Xebec would hole her prey just inches above the waterline making escape impossible. Six culverins were mounted along the poop deck for close action or just in case the crew tried to mutiny. Oars were used when the wind failed giving the Xebec the upper hand in attacking other vessels or fleeing the authorities (please note the oars hanging alongside the poop deck).

The model measures 35" long from bow to stern. It's a historical & famous ship model that will be a conversation piece for any room or office.
