Description
Handcrafted, scratch built and readymade HMS Victory Bicentennial Ship Model (Premier Range)
The HMS Victory Bicentennial Model Ship is on one of the many model ships we have available in our Premier range, here at Premier Ship Models. Our flawless replica of the most famous ships of the British Empire truly represents the HMS Victory in its true form.
HMS Victory is the only surviving warship to have fought in the American War of Independence, the French Revolutionary War and the Napoleonic wars. In 1778, the HMS Victory fought in a number of victorious battles, most famously Brittany, Gibraltar and against a French convoy.
On February 14th, 1797, she sailed with British ships to intercept a large Spanish convoy. The British inflicted terrible damage on the Spanish ships, and captured many, with HMS Victory recognised for her role in the success. Rebuilt in 1800, she went on to fight battles against Napoleon, emerging triumphant against a number of French ships during Napoleon’s reign.
In the latter period, she served as Lord Nelson’s flagship at the decisive Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. From 1824, HMS Victory served as the flagship of the Commander in Chief at Portsmouth. Dry docked from 1922, she is now open as a museum. HMS victory received its last battle wound during World War II, from a German bomb explosion.
Using original plans and drawings, our skilled craftsmen have elegantly incorporated detailed features into this wooden ship model. With a part to play in many memorable moments in history, our HMS Victory is truly an extraordinary model ship that cannot be missed. Sure to add character and charisma to any room, it will provide great conversation topics of the different battles the HMS Victory faced.
