Pinco ligure 1750 Wood Model Ship Kit, Euronavi 150

  

Rare vintage boat building kit. She was normally armed with three masts with lateen sails replaced only in case of bad weather by square sails on the main and foremast. The lifeboat was usually towed. The main characteristic of the pinco was in fact that of carrying the maximum possible load and for this purpose the goods were also stowed on deck and even hung overboard (particularly the barrels). The pinco made voyages only in the Mediterranean and without ever straying too far from the coast.
