{"product_id":"elsie-fishing-schooner","title":"ELSIE FISHING SCHOONER","description":"\u003cdiv\u003eBuilt in 1910 at the Arthur D. Story shipyard in Essex, Massachusetts, the Elsie was designed with a semi-knockabout schooner rig, reflecting the influence of the safer, but costlier, knockabout schooners. She was outfitted with power after her 1921 race with the Canadian schooner Bluenose. Under Canadian\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eownership in 1935, her seams opened at the stem rabbet and she foundered in the Gulf of St. Lawrence.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eOur kit is based on surveys by naval architect and historian, Howard Chapelle, plus photographs and contemporary descriptions of the original vessel. Instruction book concentrates on modeling techniques for 1\/8 scale, with emphasis on rigging and its simplification for this small scale.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"MODEL EXPO EUROPE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":62407188676938,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1053\/4381\/1914\/files\/elsie2.jpg?v=1781858131","url":"https:\/\/modelexpo-europe.eu\/cs\/products\/elsie-fishing-schooner","provider":"MODEL EXPO EUROPE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
