HISTORY BRITISH SHIP HMS ENDEAVOUR

Launched in 1765 and chosen by James Cook three years later to prepare his historic voyage, the ship HMS Endeavour was part of important discoveries. Thanks to this British ship, Australia was discovered and Tahiti and numerous islands were located. In addition, new animal and plant species unknown in Europe were discovered. And, finally, it allowed for the first time the calculation with great precision of the position in longitude by means of mathematical formulas.

In short, the contribution of James Cook's voyages to navigation, seamanship and geographical exploration are of historical importance. Now you can learn what the captain's boat of HMS Endeavour was like thanks to this 1:50 scale wooden model from Artesania Latina, a true jewel of naval modeling. Get started on this wonderful hobby with this low difficulty naval replica for beginners.
