This is a ginormous 7.3 feet long museum-quality replica of San Felipe, one of the most beautiful Spanish galleons of the XVII century. This is an Exclusive Edition where the model has a unique serial number etched into the hull, which allows us to identify production date, material used and all other production information of a model. Master craftsmen using historical photographs, drawings or original plans meticulously handcraft these highly detailed wood models from scratch. They are built to scale with high-grade wood such as: western red cedar, rosewood, and mahogany. They are 100% hand built individually using plank-on-frame construction method and are similar to the building of actual ships. Each model requires hundreds of hours to finish and must go through a demanding quality control process before leaving the workshop. This massive San Felipe XXL model features plank on frame, three decks, and three rows of ferocious cannons on each side of the ship. A unique bowsprit design
