A friend of mine remembers seeing a kit some years ago of a sailing ship cross section. He thinks it was an Italian make; made of wood and had the mainmast included. If anyone could shed more light on the subject or a similar kit, he (and myself ) would greatly appreciate it.
Cheers

Ahoy Tom

Check this link:
http://www.westbourne-model.co.uk/corel-model-kits.htm

See reference SM24 (cross section of the HMS Victory)
and if you browse on the website you'll find some more cross sections from other brands

Hope this helped,

Skipper

Model Expo has both the HMS Victory cross section, and the USS Constitution cross section, and also a rather cool bow section of the HMS Victory.
