Materials : Our master artisans at Bobato Ship Models meticulously recreate historical wooden vessels from the 15th to the 18th century using official plans and archives from the Musée de la Marine. Whether crafting standard scale models or large-scale masterpieces over one meter, every build requires between 1,500 and over 6,000 hours of precision handiwork. From plank-on-frame hull assembly to complex rigging, each stage reflects museum-grade craftsmanship, patience, and dedication. Every creation relies on a selection of premium raw materials. We combine noble hardwoods—such as walnut, teak, mahogany, and oak—for the hull structure and deck planking, fine textiles treated with beeswax and custom aging techniques for authentic period sails and rigging, and custom-machined brass and Zamak (white metal) fittings for sharp, accurate miniature details.

Build time Approximately 1,500 to over 6,000 hours

The Vessel

Maritime History

Built in Santander, Spain, the Santa Maria (originally named La Gallega) was a classic 15th-century Spanish carrack (nao). In 1492, she served as the flagship for Christopher Columbus on his historic voyage across the Atlantic Ocean, leading the Niña and Pinta to the Americas and marking one of the most defining moments in world history.
