Authentic Royal Navy HM Gun Brig Adder 1797 Model Ship Kit – Vanguard Models

[Ages of Sail]

Adder was ordered on 7/02/1797, and keel laid that same month, and launched on 22/04/1797. In 1798, according to both Daivid Lyon’s Sailing Navy List and Rif Winfield’s similar work, British Warships in the Age of Sail, Adder was lengthened in 1798 to 97 feet along the deck, so Adder may not have been coppered when first commissioned. She was broken up in 1805.

This wooden ship kit includes laser cut parts, photo etched brass, double planked hull, Walnut dowel for masting, instruction manual, and rigging drawings.
