Description:

Did you know that in the early 15th century, some junks reached up to 150 m long and had up to 9 masts ?

And also that it's the junks to be equipped first of bulkheads (not the Titanic as one might think).

FRANCAIS : Savez vous qu'au début du 15 ème siècle, des jonques atteignaient 150 m de long et portaient jusqu'à 9 mats ?

Et aussi que ce sont les jonques qui ont les premières été équipées de cloisons étanches (et pas le Titanic comme on pourrait le croire).

    Thank you for this blend. You've made a lovely model. And thanks for being generous with the preview images. They really show off your work.

    I looked at some information on the junk - it's amazing that this vessel has been in existence for so many thousands of years and is still in use today.

    Are you planning to do anything special with your model?

    As a Captain I particularly liked this model and the lore of the sea travelers.
