This marvelous HMS Endeavour scale 1:60 SM 41 model was created by Corel Modelissmo of Milan Italy in 1970. This complete model kit contains all pieces for creation of Capt. James Cook’s famous HMS Endeavour.

This beautiful model kit has been well cared for, never attempted and is in excellent vintage condition with all parts and instructions intact. It is the perfect addition to your Navy model collection, particularly if you like British Navy history! The HMS Endeavour was a famous British Royal Navy research vessel, also known as HM Bark Endeavour. A well-known Lieutenant “James Cook” commanded this research vessel on his very first voyage and discovered Australia and New Zealand from 1769 to 1771. The purpose of this operation was to travel to Tahiti to observe the transit of Venus in front of the Sun, thus contributing to astronomy and navigation. Another mission was to determine if there was an unknown southern land, originally known as Terra Australis Incognita. The navy then renamed her as His Majesty’s Bark the Endeavour. She left Plymouth on 25 August 1768 and arrived in Tahiti on 13th April 1769. The crew of James Cook established very good relations with the Tahitians and remained on the island for three months. HMS Endeavour arrived on the island of New Zealand on 4 October 1769 and for six months the crew visited the islands and subsequently established the fact that there were actually two islands. Due to bad weather conditions, Cook abandoned his search for Terra Australis on 31 March 1770 and arrived at New Holland on 19 April 1770. HMS Endeavour again departed on 16 May 1770 along the coast of Australia. Nine days later, the HME Endeavour arrived at what is now known as the town of Cook. The vessel remained there for 6 days for repair. In 1793 she ran aground off Rhode Island and was demolished.

The attention to detail is simply incredible, from the rigging to the sails, making it a true work of art. The brand Artesania is known for its high-quality craftsmanship, and this model is no exception. This Model is not mark new because the box has been opened but the contents are factory sealed. The box is “shelf worn”.

I acquired this from an estate with a number of other kits. I feel fairly confident that it is complete. The box is over 7 pounds! The only deficiencies that I can see are that there is no original box, and the running rigging plans are water damaged–but they have all been copied on 8 1/2 x 11 pages. See the last two photos. Please look at the photos. It seems like a cool kit to build. Artesania Latina’s kit features pre-cut frames. All metal fittings are brass and copper. Stern windows and other ornamentation are bronzed cast metal. The Endeavour carries eight brass swivel falconets and four brass cannon on walnut carriages. Deadeyes and ships wheel are rare yellow boxwood. Four sheets of extensive plans are included, along with illustrated instruction booklet. Length: 31 1/2″, Height: 27″, Scale 1:60.

HMS Endeavour, also known as HM Bark Endeavour, was a British Royal Navy first voyage of discovery, to Australia and New Zealand, from 1769 to 1771. She departed Plymouth in August 1768, rounded Cape Horn, and reached Tahiti in time to observe the 1769 transit of Venus across the Sun. She then set sail into the largely uncharted ocean to the south, stopping at the Pacific islands of Huahine, Borabora, and Raiatea to allow Cook to claim them for Great Britain. In September 1769, she anchored off New Zealand, the first European vessel to reach the islands since Abel Tasmans Heemskerck 127 years earlier. Endeavour then sailed north along the Australian coast. She narrowly avoided disaster after running aground on the Great Barrier Reef, and Cook had to throw her guns overboard to lighten her. He then beached her on the mainland for seven weeks to permit rudimentary repairs to her hull. On 10 October 1770, she limped into port in Batavia (now named Jakarta) in the Dutch East Indies, for more substantial repairs, her crew sworn to secrecy about the lands they had discovered. She resumed her westward journey on 26 December, rounded the Cape of Good Hope on 13 March 1771, and reached the English port of Dover on 12 July, having been at sea for nearly three years.
