Description
Two interesting shipmodels.
The MONITOR has recently been the subject of numerous news articles and TV documentaries. Her remains were found off Cape Hatteras and a major expedition was formed to recover and preserve her engine and other artifacts. MONITOR had a unique low hull, sheathed in 1" iron plate, which presented a small target. The rotating gun turret permitted firing in all directions while underway. This is a model suitable for the less experienced modeler. It contains a precarved basswood hull, etched brass, Britannia fittings, and everything else necessary to successfully complete your own piece of history.
In July of 1861, the confederate Navy began converting the partly burned hull of the captured Union wooden steam frigate, MERRIMAC, to an ironclad. Rechristened VIRGINIA, she set forth in March, 1862 to do battle against the blockading U.S. Navy fleet, eventually meeting her match, the MONITOR. This kit is intended for the less experienced modeler. It contains a pre-carved basswood hull, finely cast Britannia fittings, and all the other parts needed to complete this historic vessel.
