Columbia Yacht - Y155
Price: $149.00
Columbia Model Yacht
The Columbia was built in the Nevins Yacht under the supervision of Olin Stephens.
Olin Stephens brought all his vast and sound experience in the design of the
1958 America’s Cup Defender. This 12 meter yacht had a wooden hull and could
sail at very high speed. The skipper Briggs Cunningham inevitably took Columbia
to the victory, winning over all contenders.

All of our model ships and boats are handmade from scratch.
They are built by very skillful and experienced craftsmen.
They are also built according to the scale of the original full sized
ships. We do this through the use of original plans or pictures and use
a plank on frame construction method. The hull of our ships are joined
by multiple pieces of dry thin wood.
Inside of the hull, we use a special glue that is imported
just for this purpose. The glue makes the wood strips stay close together
so that they will not split, crack or twist which can happen due to weather
changes or humidity changes.
Our models are built completely for raw materials, NOT
kits. We recommend that you purchase a display stand for each ship that
you purchase to protect it from harm.
