I could have listened to this fascinating narration for much longer. I was deflated when it ended so quickly. Excellent topic and information. Bravo!
When I brainstorm for ideas of great art that I will creat; I always imagine what he and the other lady that is with him in many other videos may commentate on. 😂
I love these little videos
That model is sooo cool!
Thanks for the video. This reminds me of New York city was once called New Amsterdam.
Love the detail of the face spitting out rope @4:25 It's fascinating to have such contrasts of planning, order and artistry against the barbaric trade practices that they rendered.
Wouw thats awesome! Cant wait to visit Boston then! :) excellent video as always! :))
They also used these larger models back in the day to train the sailors on the rigging of the ship.
Wow, fascinating!!
Have you guys visited the Historiska Museet in Stockholm? They have many, many interesting objects there.
One day we hope to.
ART + HISTORY……..A “window” into the past……EQUALS “Everyone Wins”…..
Why were the N's backwards on the ships name astern? АИИО too
I would pay a high price
Yes but no one would be able to learn or appreciate history. Espescially beceause its an exact ship model for the real life thing BACK THEN wich is verry impressive. So i would pay even more to keep things like these out of private collectors hands. And would want it to be put in a museum

Smh, lol. I wanna throw jilted lover shade, but can't be bothered.
This is a cool model with an unfortunate history.
