All Sails Up and Flying. It was 1989 when I started building a large 1/4= 1 foot scale model of Constitution and today, 16 years and 18,000 hours later, I honestly believe this is how she was rigged during her last chase, exactly one hour prior to her last battle against the British HMS Levant and HMS Cyane. I had already invested more than four thousand hours in the construction of this model, and had intended, upon completion of the hull, to proceed with the stepping of masts and rigging her just as I had done previously on other models. This meant creating additional scaled parts relating to sheer poles, etc. To simulate exactly how the masts and the bowsprit, etc. Were stepped in this era, and for this reason. 11.15″ L x 8.27″ W (2.63 lbs), 384 pages.
