Ready Built Titanic Pt No 2104
Ref: 4708
Information
" ARTR (Almost Ready To Run)
" The RMS Titanic was a passenger ship of the British White Star Line. When commissioned on 2 April 1912, it was the largest ship in the world.
" On its maiden voyage on 14 April 1912, the Titanic collided with an iceberg and sank in the North Atlantic two hours and 40 minutes later. 1500 of the more than 2200 persons on board died, primarily due to the inadequate number of lifeboats. Based on the high number of victims, the sinking of the Titanic is one of the greatest catastrophes in maritime history.
" Because of the unique circumstances associated with its sinking, the Titanic is one of the best known ships in history.

Ready Built Bizmarck
Ref: 4515
The original
The Treaty of Versailles permitted Germany to build new ships with a maximum of only 10,000 tons. This made it possible to build only armoured ships of the Germany class (e.g. Graf Spee). Only after the conclusion of the German-British Fleet Agreement of June 1935, was Germany officially allowed to build battleships with a standard displacement of up to 35,000 t. However, these requirements were ignored, so that later on the Bismarck had an operational displacement of about 42,000 t. When it was commissioned in August 1940, it was the largest and most powerful battleship in the world.
The Bismarck became known in the operation it carried out with the Prinz Eugen (Operation Rhine Exercise). During this operation, the HMS Hood was sunk by a salvo from the Bismarck. During the battle, the Bismarck was damaged. Therefore, Admiral Lütjens decided to sail back to Brest for repairs. On this voyage, the Bismarck suffered rudder damage from Swordfish torpedo bombers from H.M.S. Ark Royal, which made it impossible for it to escape from other British ships rushing to the scene. On 27 May, it was finally caught in the North Atlantic by two battleships and two heavy cruisers and went down about 550 nautical miles from Brest.

Ready Built H.M.S.Hood
Ref: 2397
A new almost ready to run scale model of H.M.S Hood from Graupner with stunning detail now available .
This accurate scale model of the Royal Navy’s battle cruiser from 1918. The Admiral class ships were developed during the First World War to counter the threat of the German Mackensen classes, but only HMS Hood was completed.
In 1941 the Hood, together with the Prince of Wales, took part in the hunt for the Bismarck (accompanied by the Prinz Eugen). During this action the ship came under devastating steep-angle fire from the Bismarck, which succeeded in gaining a hit in the main magazine. The gigantic resultant explosion split the Hood in two, and the wreck sank in just two minutes; there were only three survivors.

Ready Buit Schanhorst
Ref: 2399
ARTR (Almost Ready To Run)
Accurate scale model of the former German War Navy's battle cruiser of 1936. The Scharnhorst and her sister ship Gneisenau were the first warships to be built which significantly exceeded the specifications laid down by the Treaty of Versailles. To avoid provoking a conflict with England, the vessels were fitted with the relatively weakarmament of 28 cm guns, although they carried powerful armour and had a high top speed of 31.5 kn.
Nevertheless the ships were not legalised until the signing of the German-British Fleet Agreement.
In the period up to 1942 the two ships participated in a number of joint operations against merchant shipping, and in support of the German occupation of Norway. After their return to Germany (Operation Cerberus) the Gneisenau layin dock for the repair of relatively slight mine damage, when she was severely damaged in an aerial attack, and was never re-commissioned. In 1945 the vessel was scuttled as part of the blockade of the entrance to Gotenhafen.
In December 1943, during an operation (Operation Ostfront) in the North Sea against merchant shipping, the Scharnhorst was sunk by two British battle groups consisting of the battleship HMS Duke of York, three light cruisers, one heavy cruiser and eight destroyers.
After protracted research by the Norwegian Alf R. Jacobsen in British, German and Norwegian military archives, and interviews with survivors and surviving dependents, the wreck of the Scharnhorst was located in September 2000 at a depth of around 300 m, at a point around 160 km North of Nordkap.

Ti Amo ready built 2092
Ref: 2402
ARTR (Almost Ready To Run)

The original:
Yachts of this type were used for short trips (called day cruisers). Therefore, these yachts are found particularly often in the Mediterranean and on the large European lakes. Especially in Venice, many of these yachts can be found.
They often have very powerful engines installed in order to reach high speeds. Despite the open bridge, these yachts are luxuriously appointed and also have a large interior cabin with multiple sleeping berths. Today these yachts are made with mahogany-coloured GRP hulls and wooden decks. This makes it possible to produce complex hull shapes that can not be made with pure wooden hulls.

The model:
Realistic replica of a typical modern luxury yacht
The wooden surfaces are made of individual planks of variously coloured woods, and the covering of the benches and recliner covered in synthetic leather and upholstery creates a particularly realistic effect
High-quality, top-class model withgood detailing

Theodor Heuss Rescue Craft
Ref: 2401
ARTR (Almost Ready To Run)
Scale model of the first sea rescue cruiser featuring the current configuration (tower superstructure and separate daughter boat for shallow water operations). All subsequent cruisers have been built to the same layout.
A total of four ships of the Theodor Heuss class have been built. On 12.02.1957 the cruiser was christened with the name of the German Federal President of the time, Theodor Heuss. The daughter boat was christened Tedje, which is the North German diminutive of the first name Theodor.
The Theodor Heuss remained in service from 1957 to 1963 at Borkum, and from 1963 to 1985 at Laboe. The cruiser was subsequently sold, and is still sailing today as a motor yacht under the name Frido Spatz.
The daughter boat has also been in private ownership since 1996, and is due to sail again after restoration. Previously it was set up as a display exhibit in front of the Norddeich rescue hangar.
The Theodor Heuss which is on display in the German Museum in Munich is the renamed sister ship H.H. Meier. Top-quality model with superb detailing.

Alexander von Humboldt
Ref: 2395
Scale model of the barque Alexander von Humboldt operated by the German charity Sail Training of Bremerhaven (www.gruene-segel.de).
The model was developed according to original drawings in collaboration with the DSST.
The »Alex« was converted from a former light ship of 1906.At that time light ships were built with seaworthy sailing ship hulls. The central mast took the form of a lantern mast. More information on this subject can be found on the Internet.
To increase the vessel that separate ballast weight is added to the hull.

Sailing the model in wind strengths above 1 Beaufort is not recommended!
Since the model is not fitted with a variable rig,

it should be operated as a powered boat with sails.
The »Alex« has become an extremely familiar sight through its appearance in television advertisements for a world-renowned brand of beer. The hull was painted green in recognition of the sailing ships of the Rickmers shipping company.
Top-quality model with superb detailing.

Ready Built Cap San Diego
Ref: 2396
ARTR (Almost Ready To Run)
Scale model of the Cap San Diego museum ship, which is stationed in the port of Hamburg. It is based on original drawings provided by the Cap San Diego Operating Company mbH (www.capsandiego.de)
In 1962 the ships of the Cap San class ushered in the era of fast freighters with their large refrigerated holds and fittings for twelve passengers. With their slim hulls and pronounced stem and stern rakes these ships were more reminiscent of elegant motor-yachts than freighters, and that was why they also became known as the White Swans of the South Atlantic.
Eventually, after about 1980, the Container became the dominant means of goods transport, and the end of the mixed cargo freighter hove into sight; one result of this development was the sale of the Cap San Diego to Spain in 1981.
Rescued from the scrapyard's cutting torch, the Cap San Diego returned to Hamburg in late 1986, where she was completely restored to a seaworthy state. Since that time she has been stationed at the Überseebrücke in Hamburg. We strongly recommend a visit to this vessel.
A high-quality top-level model with superb detail fittings.
