Amati Nina Caravel – First Step

Niña, or the little one, is the ship that housed Christopher Columbus’s cabin. At the beginning, she featured the characteristic Latin sails, but afterwards she was equipped with square sails. Being a small size caravel, such as the Pinta was, she was very agile in the manoeuvers, but she need a remarkable ballast to withstand the stormy sea. Niña is a milestone in the history of sailing and of the whole humanity.

Amati’s first Step series is meant to introduce new builders to the joy of ship modeling. These kits are easy to assembly with minimal tools needed. Adult supervision is recommended for builders under the age of 8.

While these kits are ideal for first time and young builders, adult supervision is still recommended while working with glue and paint.
