Hand Built Model of an English Fishing Smack

About the Item

Fully fitted with proper sails (colored the tint that they would have been after their first proofing coat), chains and anchor, it proudly displays its workman roots. Employed through much of the 19th century along the coasts, these boats even found themselves outfitted for battle during the Great War, though we have no evidence that this particular one, the “Patience” out of Ramsgate, ever saw such action.
