Academy 14204 1/200 New Bedford Whaler
Charles W. Morgan is an American sailing whaling vessel that was launched in 1841 and performed its functions until 1920. It is worth adding, however, that the ship made its last voyage in November 1941! At the time of launching, the unit was approx. 34 m long, approx. 8.4 m wide and with a draft of approx. 4.2 m. The displacement reached approx. 350 tons. Charles W. Morgan was designed and built at the Jetrho ana Zacaharian Hillman shipyard in the city New Bedford, Massachusetts. It is worth adding that the city was famous in the nineteenth century for its whaling traditions and was a kind of "capital" of American whaling at that time. It is therefore not surprising that this is where, first of all, specialized shipyards for the manufacture of cetacean vessels were established. Ship Charles W. Morgan has made 37 voyages in the course of his long career. It was converted into a museum ship in the 1940s and is now the only surviving 19th century American whaling ship. In 1966, the ship was renamed National Historic Landmark.
This high quality plastic kit is a to scale model that will require assembly and may require additional tools, sold separately.
