Sovereign 35"- Museum

 Overall dimensions: 35" H x 4" W x 27" L (1:31 scale)

This newly designed, Limited Edition, museum-quality, scale replica Sovereign sailboat is offered exclusively by Handcrafted Model Ships. This sail boat includes a numbered Certificate of Authenticity signed by HMS Founder and Master Builder Richard Norris, as only 100 will ever be made. Accurate in almost every detail to the original Sovereign sail boat, this Sovereign sailboat offers features not available by other sellers, and has many upgrades over all other sailboat models available.

This is a pre assembled model. Models are shipped with the sails unassembled. All rigging, lines, and stays have brass hooks attached. They easily hook into eyelets on mast, boom, sprit, or deck. Pictured instructions with numbers on the hooks allow anyone to easily assemble this sailboat model in less than 4 minutes. This allows us to offer the model at a reasonable price. If assembled, the shipping cost alone would increase the cost by an additional $100

The sails are slightly starched to hold their shape and a higher quality and higher thread-count material is used, similar to that of the actual Sovereign sailboat at the time it sailed.  We offer three unique sail materials that are matched to the different eras of model yachts we offer.  Also, additional rigging lines have been added to be more true to the actual Sovereign sail boat.

Our Sovereign model sailboat is built with rare, high quality woods. Hand painted the actual colors of the Sovereign America's Cup sailboat. Sovereign America's Cup sailboat model has fabric sails with detailed stitching.


To build this model ship, extensive research was done using various sources such as museums, drawings, copies of original plans and photos of the actual Sovereign yacht. Visit our Frequently Asked Questions or call with questions.
