Cargo and fishing boats of the island of Vis.
Gajeta falkuša is designed according to the needs of fishermen from Komiža who sailed for centuries to 42 miles away from Palagruža, an area rich in fish and where they ruled. Loaded with salt for the salting of fish, fishing gear and other objects, they sailed by day using the mistral, the north-west wind and returned in the evening and night, sailing with the south wind.
This method of navigation that required two types of vessels, cargo and fishing, and just did falkuša.
As they sailed toward the destination or returning from there, gajeta falkuša had set Folke (opposite) and developed with the mast and sails spirit.
At destination they left the folk, mast, boomand and sails on the beach not to be disturbed while handling nets and fishing accessories.
During the return they salted the fish wasting no time.
Gajeta falkuša is made so that the five crew member can easily extract the shoreline coast in places where there are no safe harbors.

Dalmatian boats

The world of model boat kits has never seen a program like this until now. It is a set of the most famous Dalmatian boats used throughout the past. These boats, in an almost unchanged form, are still used today, but have been equipped with engines and upgraded cabins.

Among them, we chose two models:
Pasara 44,3cm, 17.44'', 1:14
and Gaeta 48,0CM, 18.90'', 1:14 .
They are a combination of frame construction and plank on bulkhead building.

The third is very important Falkusa 70,4cm, 27.72'', 1:20 is made on a mold for finishing hull fitted with frames and other elements.

All three models provide an extraordinary experience for all modelers who know how to cover a hull with a single layer of planks. When finished, they look exactly the same as the originals.

Trajta - fishing and cargo boat from Korčula 63,8cm, 25.12'', 1:20 is a model that perfectly connects the ship models from the beginner course level 2 and 3 and ship models whose construction is more demanding. It is ideal for embarking on, more advanced model building, while Batelina – a boat of the Croatian coast 34cm, 13.39'', 1:10 belongs to the program for beginners, Beginner set: Level 1 .

Step above

As a link between easy to build models and more advanced projects, we offer a series of easy to build kits from MarisStella Model Ship Kits and The Old Seller lines. If you have already mastered the basics of model ship building, these kits will guide you into and through more demanding projects, that are not too complex for a careful model builder.

The "Step above" program is the next step for ship modelers who have mastered our beginner's courses at the first, second and third levels, and are prepared to start work on a larger project. The instructions in these projects are like all MarisStella kits, highly detailed, but they still allow independent thinking and planning. All you need is the ability to read blueprints.

The assembly kits that we have included in this program, which connect other programs from our assortment, are:

Advanced Work

In English we define the qualifications of the ship modeler to enable them to decide on the level of models they want to build in this program. They are: Intermediate level . This means a model maker should have built at least three or more models to a reasonably high standard. This level will enable the modelbuilder to choose models from the MarisStella list without any problems. These are all unique works that were presented to the world for the first time through this line of kits.
