La Toulonnaise - Schooner (1823-1843)


This schooner is a two mast vessel with jibs and fore and aft sails. The foremast may have a topsail and a topgallant, which is the case of the Museum model.

This very elegant small vessel was launched in Toulon in August 1823. She saw action particularly in Spain and sailed until 1843, at which time she was decommissioned.

This model has very simple lines and no flashy colours; ornamentation is simplified. Iron appears : stretching devices, davits, port lids hinges. She carries 8 caron guns. Anchor cables are now iron chains.

The building of this model is easy for a fairly skilful model builder.
