CSS Hunley

 Kit can either be ordered with open inside or closed.
this kit CW05 - $110.95 
It has taken Old Steam NavyŽ two years of work to introduce this kit to the market.
Created from a great deal of historical research, Old Steam NavyŽ used computer
aid design (CAD) combined with stereo lithography to create the submarine for this kit.
It is rich in detail and precision. The Hunley's history serves as an inspiration as it tells a
story of innovation, personal bravery and devotion to the cause these men found
themselves defending. In February 1864 the Hunley became the first submarine to sink
an enemy ship; the USS Housatonic. We thought the best policy was to offer
our customers as much freedom and flexibility as possible regarding extra options.
Old Steam's kit includes the Hunley submarine, and the Singer torpedo. The kit
also includes the wooden dock the salvaged Hunley sat on after its sinking
at the hand of Horace Hunley.
