Occre 1/86 Scale San Felipe Model Kit Occre proudly presents the San Felipe model, a majestic representation of the iconic 18th-century warship. Crafted with precision at a 1/86 scale, this model demands a high level of skill and dedication for its construction. Its name continues to give rise to many confusions. Some authors refer to it as “San Felipe,” others as “El Real,” or “Real Felipe.” The vessel is named after Felipe V of Spain, the first Bourbon king of Spain. The San Felipe was a Spanish three-deck first-rate warship (the highest rank) and one of the most famous and emblematic vessels of its time. Built in 1716 at the Catalan shipyard of Sant Feliu de Guixols following the proportions of Antonio Gaztañeta, armed with 108 cannons, and commenced its service in the Navy in 1717. It was built without sparing any materials, featuring double planking, both internal and external, providing its hull with great strength. The hull covering was made of oak wood. The planks, known as “Hiladas or trancas,” were 8 meters long and 25 centimeters thick. Oth - er ship components were crafted from oak, elm, and pine. The construction likely required over 4,000 trees, explaining why historians consider shipbuilding as one of the causes of Spanish deforestation .   SPECIFICATIONS: Scale: 1/86 Length: 830mm Height: 630mm Width: 320mm   FEATURES: More than 3,800 parts Top quality wood Plank on frame construction High-quality castings Extensive luxury of details Wooden plate with the ship’s name Set of sails Step-by-step high-definition photos Step-by-step video tutorials Multilingual instructions Detailed list of parts with measurements and materials   Please note: Display Stand is not included.
