Celebrate maritime heritage with the Artesania 1/35 J.S. Elcano Lifeboat (HC-AL19019), a wooden model ship kit that recreates a lifeboat from the renowned Spanish brigantine schooner Juan Sebastian Elcano. Launched in 1927 at Cádiz, the Elcano has long served as the Spanish Navy’s training ship for Marine Guards.

Named after the explorer who completed the first circumnavigation in 1522, the vessel has undertaken extended instructional cruises of around 20,000 miles. In preparation for the 1964 Lisbon–Hamilton transatlantic race, some sails were modified and, after hard training, the ship achieved speeds of up to 15 knots. This compact 1/35 scale project offers a satisfying build and an elegant display piece for model ship builders and maritime history enthusiasts.

Discover Juan Sebastian Elcano's lifeboat, wooden model ship of this representative Spanish brigantine schooner. This sailboat receives its name by the Spanish explorer Juan Sebastian Elcano, captain of the expedition -after the death of Fernando de Magallanes- who completed the first circumnavigation of the world in 1522.

Launched in 1927 in Cadiz, Juan Sebastian Elcano serves as a training ship in the Navy for the Marine Guards. During the second semester of the fourth year of their career at the Naval Military School, they conducted an instructional cruise, a six-month to America and twenty thousand miles travel.

In preparation for the great race of 3,600 miles between Lisbon and Hamilton in 1964, some of its sails were amended and after some hard training, the ship reached a speed of 15 knots. Build this beautiful replica of one of its lifeboats.
