“The M or Marblehead Class, sometimes called the “50/800″, is a medium size high performance development class. It’s original concept in the 1930’s was to produce the largest model that would conveniently fit in the standard American car of the time. The class is a development class with the main restrictions being a hull length of 50 inches and a sail area of 800 square inches. The class has been highly developed over the years to produce a high performance model that can be sailed in a wide range of conditions, assuming the owner has the appropriate rigs. Today’s M weighs around ten pounds and carries an 85 inch rig in most conditions. The hull and rigs tend to use advanced materials and techniques.”

Our short kit includes the frame parts to build the 50-800 Marblehead Class. The birch plywood we use in our kits is carefully chosen for optimum ease of construction. We also include a self-supporting alignment jig to help the modeller build the model.

Here is a picture of the parts you will get with this kit. There are five plywood sheets of 24 inches by twelve inches in the kit.

Please note that our short kit does not include planking, sails, rigging, or any electronics.
