The steel-hulled fishing trawler Ladysmith was constructed in Yorkshire, England, in 1906. She had an alternating triple expansion steam engine which carried her to speeds of 10 knots. Ship's wheel, propeller, lifeboat, air vents and skylights are cast metal.
Brass forms the bell, steam cylinders, eyebolts and gear shafts.
Rigging line, pre-printed sail material, cloth flags, decals and a wooden display base are also provided. Keel and ribs arrive pre-cut, and all wood parts are of choice beech, mahogany, boxwood and other fine hardwoods. Included plans and instructions clearly map out each step of assembly. CNSB8240 Built in 1779, the HMS Pandora is best known for her voyage to Tahiti to bring back Fletcher Christian's Bounty mutineers. Unlike other Constructo kits, its hull is double-planked.
