Pen Duick
Price range: €69.00 through €129.00
Built in 1898 as “Yum”, this yacht was designed as a racing yacht for the 20-rater yacht class. Her first racing season was immediately quite successful: a 4th place in her first regatta on June 17, 1899, at the Royal Corinthian Club was followed only by 1st and 2nd places.
After numerous sales and name changes, Pen Duick came into the possession of Eric Tabarly. While this boat was laid up and continuously renovated, Eric Tabarly achieved worldwide fame with his other Pen Duicks. Pen Duick did not sail again until July 9, 1989.
Pen Duick’s 100th birthday in 1998 was celebrated in grand style in Brittany. Pen Duick was also expected in Fairlie, the workplace of Pen Duick’s famous designer William Fife, for this occasion. On the way to Scotland, Eric Tabarly went overboard on the night of June 12 to 13, 1998, and drowned.
Since then, the “Association Eric Tabarly” has taken care of preserving the Pen Duicks.

The ship model shown is a scale replica of the Pen Duick.
This model was made 100% by hand and with precision using traditional frame construction with hull planking.
Exotic fine woods such as teak, mahogany, rosewood or mango are used, among others, resulting in a valuable and decorative premium model as the finished product.
After completion, the hull is carefully sanded and painted where intended. 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 sturdy cotton threads. Some of these ropes have special knots that allow the ropes to be tightened at any time.
Our models undergo strict quality control so that we can offer you a flawless product. Customer satisfaction is our highest priority. All models are delivered fully assembled.
