The El Cazador (The Hunter) was a Spanish warship that sailed from Veracruz in Mexico to New Orleans, then the capital of the Spanish colony of Louisiana, on January 11, 1784, carrying 19 tons of Spanish real silver coins.
The money was intended to stabilize the colony’s economic situation. However, the ship sank in the Gulf of Mexico for unknown reasons. The economic situation deteriorated so much that Spain was forced to sell the colony to France in 1800.

The ship model shown is a true-to-scale replica of the El Cazador.
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, resulting in a valuable and decorative premium model.
After completion, the hull is carefully sanded and, where intended, painted. 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.
