About this work
Frame model of the cross-section of a ship on a baseboard, with two decks, a mast, two pumps, two gun ports on both sides of the upper deck, and two portholes on both sides of the lower deck. The pumps are connected by a balance beam. The mast can be set in different positions by rearranging the loose pieces of the shrouds and the stay, which is placed between the futtocks. Parts of the deck can be removed.
