Model of a Pilot Ship

An interesting and finely detailed hand-made model of Pathfinder, an early 20th century pilot ship. Ships such as these were (and still are) invaluable in maneuvering larger ships into and out of berths and harbors. The model sits in a custom cradle and makes a great display.
