Pinnace – Model Shipways

The model depicts an English pinnace from the 1750s–1760s – a light, sleek clinker-built (carvel) rowing boat. The pinnace was mainly used to transport the captain and officers between the anchored ship and the shore. Heavier boats, such as the longboat or launch, were used to transport the crew and supplies.

The 1:24 scale model was designed by Chuck Passaro, a renowned ship model designer. It is inspired by original vessels held in the collections of the National Maritime Museum in England.

The set includes:

• plank-on-frame construction with laser-cut limewood parts,
• strips for covering the hull, floor, sides, and benches,
• cast metal anchor and stern ornament,
• brass fittings and rigging line in scale,
• pre-made decorative side stripe and rudder decals.
