About the Vessel
Cocca Veneta Historical Ship is a typical 15th century merchant vessel that used to sail on the Mediterranean trade routes. Most of these ships had a prow shaped just like a bird’s beak. She was weighted around 200 tonnes.
The word ‘cocca’ was commonly used for medium tonnage ships, mainly merchant vessels, during 15th century in Mediterranean Sea. Also, the term refers to the size of the mercantile hull of that time. It was a lightweight yet strong vessel that easily managed to conquer even the fiercest storms in the Mediterranean Sea.
The replica of the Cocca Veneta Historical Ship is made after a deep naval study, which was published in France during the end of 19th century. This study includes the miniatures as well as paintings made in the 15th century.
The ship model kit is double plank-on-frame comprising various colours of strip wood, and a complete set of fittings such as brass rudder hinges, bronzed cast metal, photo-etched copper name plate, and turned wood stanchions. The build process of this ship model kit includes a plan containing the detailed information of the original ship, precise drawings, and general instructions explained with construction outlooks.
The wooden parts are laser-cut and the kit includes various parts of pre-finished hardwood like pre-carved wooden longboat, blocks and deadeyes. Also, the kit comprises three different sizes of rigging line, linen sail cloth, and silk-screened flag.
