The San Felipe Launched in 1690, and was one of the most beautiful Spanish ships of the 17th century. She was the lead ship of the Spanish Armada. San Felipe's role in the war against the British and French was to help protect Spanish settlements and harbors, to transport treasures, and to safeguard the long and hazardous passage back to Spanish ports.

In 1705, she participated in a furious and heroic battle between 12 Spanish ships and 35 British ships. After 24 hours of battle, she was captured by an English ship, but was so badly damaged that she could not be salvaged as a prize. She went to the bottom with several tons of gold.

The San Felipe spanish ship possessed a slim profile and wide spread of sails which bestowed great maneuverability and agility. The beauty of the San Felipe war ship was enhanced by a variety of intricately handsome sculptures which adorned her stern transom, as is so evident in this particular wooden model.

Whether you are adding to your growing collection, or just beginning to appreciate the craftmanship of these fine model ships, the San Felipe is truly a beloved prize to be cherished and valued for years to come.

"Dear Melissa,

I received the US Constitution in perfect condition!
I have been working a solid hour carefully
removing her from the crating. I can honestly say,
I am now an expert in performing this tedious task.

I want to thank you and your company for meeting
and surpassing my expectations not only in the
quality of the model ship but in the Great Customer
Service provided to insure my complete satisfaction.
In this day an age this is a hell of an accomplishment.

Best regards,
Tom Quartararo"




"Aloha,

Just wanted you to know I got the ship last week....
in perfect condition I may add, and it now graces my
living room - a reminder of my trip to see the REAL
Wasa in Stockholm last summer. Thank you very much!
