H.M.S. Agamemnon Kit

An exactly scaled assembly kit of this first-class, 64-gun British warship, which became one of the most famous Royal Navy ships ever to sail. From 1793 to 1796 she was under the command of Nelson, who always spoke of her as his favorite vessel. Saints, Copenhagen, Trafalgar and the Battle of Santo Domingo are among the historical battles in which she took part.In 1809, after 28 years of uninterrupted service in the Royal fleet, the Agamemnon was scrapped and sunk in the Bay of Maldonado off the coast of Uruguay. The assembly kit reflects the ship as it looked in the days when Nelson was her captain. The remains of the Agamemnon have recently been discovered and are currently being salvaged.This Caldercraft assembly kit really does include everything, right down to the last realistic detail.
