To build this ship, extensive research was done using various sources such as museums, drawings, copies of original plans and photos of the actual ship.    Model History Vasa (or Wasa) is a warship, built for Gustavus Adolphus of Sweden 1626-1628. She foundered and sank after sailing only a mile into her maiden voyage on August 10, 1628. Vasa fell into obscurity after some initial attempts at recovering her in the 17th century, but was relocated in the late 1950s and salvaged with a largely intact hull on April 24, 1961. She was housed in a temporary museum called Wasavarvet ("The Wasa Shipyard") until 1987, and was then moved to the Vasa Museum in Stockholm. The ship is one of Sweden's most popular tourist attractions and has so far attracted over 25 million visitors. 100% Money Back Guarantee    Professional Packaging Shipped fully assembled and inspected Guaranteed to arrive undamaged Shipped immediately Tracking number emailed to you when shipped  Terms $89 in the USA (this includes the $40 large box fee recently imposed by Fedex, DHL and UPS).  The box is quite large.  AK and HI contact for a quote.  Canada is $149.  Insurance is optional for $10.
