WIND SURF
cruise ship model

Wind Surf is a schooner that is one of the largest sailing cruise ships in the world. She has five masts and two electric propulsion motors. She can carry 342 passengers, with a crew of 210. 

Wind Surf has 150 ocean-view staterooms, 18 ocean-view suites and 2 deluxe bridge suites. What Wind Surf lacks in balconies is made up for in open deck space: It was always possible to find lounge chairs and stretches of railing away from other passengers. Wind Surf has a casual atmosphere: Men needn't bring neckties or jackets, and women can leave their cocktail dresses at home.

In profile, Wind Surf is reminiscent of ocean vessels from an era when sail was giving way to steam. Most of the ship's volume is inside the hull, with the superstructure being overshadowed by the five masts and seven triangular sails.

The sails are what make Wind Surf different from most cruise ships. The 26,881 square feet or 2,600 mē of sails are deployed and furled under computer control from the bridge, with massive steel booms swinging out to the port or starboard according to wind conditions. In a stiff wind, the sails add a good three knots to the Wind Surf's maximum speed, and the ship can travel under sail alone when wind conditions and the itinerary are favorable.

This primarily wood model of the Wind Surf cruise ship is 37" long (1/200 scale). We also build this model in different sizes or similar vessels, email us for  quotes.
