The Lynx was a schooner owned by investors James Williams, Amos Williams and Levi Hollingsworth, completed in 1812 in Baltimore.
After its very first voyage as a merchant ship to Bordeaux, it fell victim to the British trade blockade. The British dispossessed the owners and put the Lynx into service with the Royal Navy. Its name was changed to “Musquidobit”.
In 1820 the ship was sold and its traces disappear. In 2001, a replica of the ship was built by Rockport Marine.

The ship model shown is a true-to-scale replica of the Lynx.
This model was made 100% by hand with precision using traditional frame construction with hull planking.
Exotic fine woods such as teak, mahogany, rosewood or mango are used, resulting in a valuable and decorative premium model.
After completion, the hull is carefully sanded and, where intended, varnished. The model is then coated with a protective clear varnish.
Ornaments and decorative details (e.g. cannons, portholes, anchors, dials and wheels …) are made of brass, chrome or other high-quality metals.
The sails are made of fabric or silk, the masts of wood and the rigging of solid cotton threads. Some of these ropes have special knots that allow the ropes to be re-tensioned at any time.
Our models undergo strict quality control so that we can offer you a flawless product. The satisfaction of our customers is our highest priority. All models are delivered fully assembled.
