Beautiful Yachting with Ugears
Catch the wind, feel the salt breeze, take to the seas or go island hopping in the stunning Ocean Beauty Yacht by Ugears. This DIY wooden model sailing vessel is a beautiful static model, with two gleaming white paper sails, and comes with its own sturdy stand for display on your shelf, mantle or desk. The model is somewhat different from other Ugears mechanical models in that the Yacht doesn't have gears and isn't propelled by a spring or rubber band motor—it's rather meant as a handsome display piece for your home or office decor.
This DIY wooden yacht model has a curved mainsail with swinging boom, and a triangular jib, both fixed to a tall mast with spreader for the starboard and port shrouds. Stanchions and rope railing line the deck. Two life preservers and an anchor add further touches of realism. On the stern is a flagpole for flying your yacht ensign—leave the white paper flag clean, color it, or affix a sticker or printout of whichever national flag or yacht club flag you choose.
No glue or special tools are required to assemble this model kit—just snap the pieces together (after lightly sanding and lubricating the moving gears with the included wax), following the detailed, illustrated instructions. Everything you need for assembly comes right in the box. A simple build, but the results are amazing and will have you wanting to build more, and more challenging Ugears wooden puzzles and models.
