The same model was built for the King of Sweden. This Corel model is made with quality wood, well-finished accessories, and small parts. It is a medium difficulty naval model with multilingual construction plans. It is an excellent assembly kit for the naval modeler. The WASA, a royal Swedish vessel with 64 guns, sank in the waters around Stockholm on the day it was launched (10 August 1628) as the result of a violent gust of wind. Construction on the vessel started in 1625, under the direction of the Dutch architect Henrik Hybertsson. While some guns and a few other objects had been recovered earlier, it was only possible to. Partially rebuilt and restored, the WASA was installed in the Wasa Museum in Stockholm in 1958. Our reproduction of the WASA is based on the excellent graphic reproductions published by the Board of the Museum. Corel, made in Italy. Although the box is opened, it appears to have all of the parts. All parts bags and boxes are unopened. I cut the tape on the long parts box for the photo. The original owner decided not to start the build. I’m unable to do a complete inventory, so I do not guarantee that every piece is included. See photos for the best description.
