The Lady Washington was a historical sailing vessel that played a significant role in American history. Originally launched in 1750 in Massachusetts as a merchant ship, it was later acquired by the Continental Navy during the American Revolutionary War. It was then re-fitted as a warship and renamed as the USS Washington.
After the war, the ship was sold into private ownership and continued to serve as a merchant vessel. In 1787, the Lady Washington became the first American-flagged vessel to make a trading voyage to China. Later, it became the first American vessel to sail around Cape Horn, which is the southernmost tip of South America.
In 1989, the Lady Washington was recreated as a replica vessel for use in movies and television shows. The replica is an exact replica of the original vessel, complete with all the original rigging and fittings. It is used for public sailings and is considered one of the most authentic tall ships in the world.
The Lady Washington from OMH is a tribute to this legendary vessel. The model is constructed with precision and attention to detail, using high-quality materials such as wood and brass. The model features accurate rigging and intricate details such as the ship’s lanterns, cannons, and figurehead.
This is not an RC model, meaning it cannot be controlled remotely. Instead, it is a static display model, perfect for adding a touch of maritime history to any room or office. Whether you are a history buff, a nautical enthusiast, or just someone who appreciates fine craftsmanship, the Lady Washington from OMH is a beautiful and timeless piece that you will treasure for years to come.
