    Description

    Selling 'Anabella'... one of five "pirate" ships hand-built by my great-grandfather between the 1920s and 1930s in his retirement, who was inspired by Captain Blood, a silent adventure film of the time... the other 4 ships went to other family members
    long ago
    .
    The Honduras Mahogany hull/masts came from the Peter Iredale a merchant ship that ran aground in 1906 off the north coast of Oregon...
    Peter Iredale - Wikipedia
    It's approx. 32" high, 36" long... the rigging is linen fishing line and one line is broken.
    It's been sitting in a closet, untouched for 20 years and is very dusty.
    Damaged rigging was repaired in 1999
    Overall the ship is in great shape.
    Anabella
    is looking for someone who'll take care of her.
    Located in the San Francisco Bay Area for pickup only... c
    an't package and ship (too expensive)
    Ship sits in a cradle, that can then be strapped to a piece of plywood for transporting.
    This is how the ship was driven to the Oregon coast back in 1999 for repairs.
