Scale 1:44. A full hull model of a Dutch 70-76-gun two-decker (circa 1665). It is decked, equipped and rigged. This reconstruction was made during 1923-25 and is a half-size copy of a contemporary model formerly in the Hohenzollern Museum, Berlin, later destroyed by fire during World War II. Captain W. Brandt of the German Navy made the model using photographs of the original as well as other contemporary evidence. Miss B. P. Derrick and Dr R. C. Anderson then rigged it in 1925.

It represents a ship measuring 115 feet along the gun deck with a beam of 42 feet and an approximate tonnage of 1100 burden. The guns are slightly overscaled and although the hull is pierced for 76-guns, it is likely to have only ever carried 70. If compared to an English ship, such as the ‘Naseby’ (SLR0001), the main differences are the shape of the stern galleries with lower quarter galleries that project out more than the English design.

The carved coat of arms on the stern is that of William, Prince of Orange, after his uncle, Charles II, had admitted him to the Order of the Garter. The original model is thought to have been given to Prince William by the Dutch Admiralties in 1666.
