    RRS Sir David Attenborough Polar Research Ship, mk1 version, metal waterline.

    Original price was: £44.95.Current price is: £39.95.
    We have just found a couple or three examples of our Mark 1 model of RRS Sir David Attenborough.  She is 15000 tonnes and built at Birkenhead to be able to cope with Polar Class 4 and 5 ice. Her nickname is Boaty McBoatface after a public consultation for her name.  One of remote submersibles now has that name. Loads of cranes and tech stuff on this ship. This was  the fourth model of the metal XAS range and released in June 2019.  Scale is 1/1250. The model is about 100mms or 4 inches in length. These examples are from our first run of this model so there is no forward gantry at the bows as our model came out before the ship was finished. She is a research vessel owned by the Natural Environment Research Council and operated by the British Antarctic Survey for the purposes of both research and logistic support. The ship was intended to replace a pair of existing vessels, RRS James Clark Ross and RRS Ernest Shackleton. The ship is 125 metres (410 ft) long, with a beam of 24 metres (79 ft). Her draught is 7 metres (23 ft) with a planned cruising speed of 13 knots (24 km/h; 15 mph) with a range of 19,000 nautical miles (35,000 km; 22,000 mi) at that speed. She has a helicopter deck and can accommodate a crew of 30 and 60 research staff. ref XAS 004 Posted all over the world with tracked postage.
