Description

The Sirius ship from The Adventures Of Tintin

The Sirius was a trawler used by Tintin, Captain Haddock and Cuthbert Calculus during the treasure expedition searching for the treasure of Red Rackham. It is featured in Red Rackham’s Treasure.

The Sirius, was named after the SS Sirius, the first ship to cross the Atlantic Ocean solely under steam power, but was visually based upon the design of the John-O.88, a trawler launched in 1936. It sunk in 1941 after being attached by German fighter planes. Hergé had sketched this ship in Ostend docks before obtaining both detailed plans of the trawler from its builders, Jos Boel & Son, and a small-scale model from a collector.

Now you can get this beautiful Sirius ship model for your TinTin collection. Our master craftsmen handcrafted these nicely detailed models from scratch using her photographs, drawings, and original plan. The model is built to scale with top quality wood such as teak, mahogany with hollow superstructure and hull. She is 100% handcrafted individually using plank-on-frame construction method and are similar to the building of the actual ship. Each model requires hundreds of hours to finish and must go through a demanding quality control process before leaving the workshop. This Sirius ship model is mounted on a solid wood base and ready to display.
