THE SHIP THE ROYAL NAVY COULDN'T CATCH

Most ships of the War of 1812 fought with guns.

The Prince de Neufchatel fought with speed.

Built in New York in 1812, she was one of the fastest vessels on the Atlantic. Long, narrow, and aggressively rigged, the Prince routinely slipped away from Royal Navy warships that should have caught her.

When she wasn't escaping, she was hunting.

As an American privateer, her mission was simple: capture British merchant ships, seize their cargo, and disappear over the horizon before the Royal Navy arrived.

And she was exceptionally good at it.

The Legend of Nantucket Shoals

But speed alone didn't make her famous.

On the night of October 11, 1814, while anchored off Nantucket, the Prince de Neufchatel faced one of the most remarkable attacks of the War of 1812.

With much of her crew absent aboard captured prize ships, only 37 men remained aboard.

The British sent approximately 111 sailors and marines in heavily armed boats to board and capture her.

What followed was twenty minutes of brutal close-quarters combat.

Pistols.

Cutlasses.

Muskets.

Hand-to-hand fighting on a darkened deck.

When it was over, the British attack had collapsed. The survivors withdrew. The Prince remained free.

The action became one of the most celebrated small-ship engagements in American naval history.

Even decades later, naval architects studied her lines. Many historians consider the Prince de Neufchatel a forerunner of the famous clipper ships that would dominate the oceans years later.

The Model Shipways Kit: History in 1:64 Scale

At over 32 inches long, the completed model captures everything that made the original so distinctive: the sleek hull, sharply raked masts, powerful brigantine rig, and elegant proportions that made her one of the fastest ships of her era.

Built using traditional plank-on-bulkhead construction, this kit is the perfect "step-up" project designed for builders with previous planking experience who are ready for a more rewarding, demanding subject.

My Dog's Favorite Bone! No staining or smells on carpet. AWESOME COMPANY! Will Support You--RISK FREE PURCHASE!
Benebone rocks! It is pricey for sure, but these are superior to nylabones in my opinion. The flavor is there that you can smell when you sniff the actual toy, but it does not stain or make the carpet smell. It will slowly wear down, but it does not result in sharp edges. Does keep my puppy's attention and does withstand her chewing. She chews on this toy every day! NOTE: I did have a problem with a previous order from Benebone. The bone broke almost immediately. The company immediately contacted me and sent me TWO replacements. The replacements lasted for a long time, and neither replacement broke like the first one; I think I just got a bad one with an air bubble or other defect. I would recommend watching your puppy/dog very carefully when you first give this toy. If it holds up well after about an hour or two of chewing, it will be just fine and you'll get many hours from it (my dog must have over 10 hours of just chewing on it). If it breaks, pull it away and contact the company! They were receptive and extremely supportive! When you have a dog you really love and is a part of the family, you really want a company that supports you both. Benebone is that company. I have recommended this bone to make co-workers and friends (I think I have had approximately 7 or 8 people buy this bone because of me), and they have all purchased the bone and it has been a HUGE hit success. So it is risk free! Buy this bone for your pup or bone and see how it goes! If you don't like it or your pup doesn't use it, just contact the company and see what they will do for you.

Perfect for my dog that destroys everything
Color: Purple
It’s important for you to know: it’s hard. It’s a hard toy. It’s a bit heavier than normal dog toysx but it’s perfect for dogs who destroy every toy.. I have a 30lb 2 y old baby and they keep her entertained for sure. They are s good size. I honestly love it. My dogs love it too. It was a good purchase :)

Indestructible dog toys
Color: Blue
These are indestructible toys. They do, however, hurt if the dog comes and drops it on your head while you’re sleeping. It is also quite scary when the dog drops it on the tile in the middle of the night. Be warned ;)
