This type of ship was used by Jason and the Argonauts during their campaign .These vessels had a crew of 30 to 50, had two side rudders at the stern and a simple auxiliary sail. According to illustrations on ancient vases, bow was round and raised and stern was the end of the keel. The length to width ratio is calculated at 1/6, which is why they belong to long ship type.
With this kit, we are trying to convey in scale, the style of construction of a vessel of the 14th B.C. As material of construction we chose to use wood (lime wood), not plywood. The method of construction of the model, represents the technique they built the vessels of the era and does not require any metal element. The method of "shell first", has been presented and been documented by archaeologists and naval architects in thematic conferences. This is offered for first time, as a wooden kit.
