Built in England in 1834 and put into the service of the Sardinian navy in 1835, the Gulnara is a typical example of the transition from sailing ship to steamship. The steam engine of this ship could only be regarded as an auxiliary drive. The ship was still fully sailable.
As an observation, escort and passenger ship, the Gulnara served Sardinia until 1861, when it was taken over by the Italian Navy. The Gulnara was equipped with an oscillating steam engine from Fawcett & Preston, Liverpool. Some of the wheel blades could be swivelled over when sailing in order to reduce the driving resistance.
 
The model kit of the Gulnara is constructed in such a way that building difficulties could be largely avoided. The result is a kit that can be successfully built by beginners without any problems and also offers the experienced model builder many fine details.

The frames and keel are already sawn out. The double fuselage planking is made of selected slat material. The bucket wheels, rear gallery and many fittings are already in the kit. Carefully designed construction plans and detailed assembly instructions ensure a pleasant and uncomplicated assembly.

With the slender elegant hull, the interesting superstructures with boiler and high chimney, the harmonious sails, the model of the Gulnara is the perfect choice.

a delicacy from the pioneering days of steamships. However, the model cannot be equipped with a working steam engine, as the necessary space is missing. The kit is designed as a pure floor model.
 
Optionally a set of ready sewn sails is available under the article no. |61913|.
