Small Ship Models

I remember when I was just a wee tike my bother and I would walk down to a nearby stream to play. We often brought our model sailboats with us. I loved nothing more than to sit by the water’s edge, watching my little sailboat make its way down stream.

Today, I have a son of my own. And, though we don’t live near a stream, we do have a lake nearby. One nice days I take him to the little beach on the lake and let him sail his model sailboat. I helped him build his boat and it’s so satisfying watching him play with it.

For the past 100 years many Americans have been infatuated by the history of the ill-fated Titanic. The Titanic embarked on her maiden voyage in 1912. At this time the world was filled with hope regarding the first voyage of the “unsinkable” ship. In just a few short days that hope turned to horror when the Titanic sank in the icy Northern-Atlantic waters.

Though it has been almost 100 years since the Titanic sank, people still marvel at the exquisite craftsmanship and glory of the ship. The splendor of the magnificent vessel doesn’t have to stay buried at the bottom of the ocean. Admirers can build their own Titanic model in the privacy of their own homes.
