Corel SM59 - HMS GREYHOUND, Kit 1:100

Description

The Greyhound was a 20-gun frigate studied by Stacey, launched at the Deptford shipyard on 13.2.1720. Little is known about her seafaring history, it seems that together with other very similar boats, she was used in the Mediterranean to fight the pirates who infested its coasts.
The period from 1600 to 1700 marked the end of this type of boats, still characterized by 2 rows of oars placed under the gun batteries, used in maneuvers at low speed, or in the absence of wind.
The Greyhound, like other ships of the same era, was very elegant, well finished and soberly decorated. The 1: 100 scale reconstruction is the result of research through prints, books, models exhibited in some museums, the result is a boat that well represents the historical period to which she belongs.
