Recreation vessel; Yacht

Scale: Unknown. A half block model of the starboard side of a yacht made entirely in wood, and painted and varnished. The hull is polished wood below the waterline and painted black above. The stem and stern posts are almost vertical and the profile is extremely tucked in, in the waist. The rudder is missing. The model is displayed on a rectangular mahogany backboard with straight bevelled edges. There appears to be an infilled piece set into the backboard just above the deck of the model and running its entire length.
