    Le Ponant — 36 Handcrafted Scale Model

    Own a museum-quality, handcrafted replica of the iconic three‑masted yacht Le Ponant. Launched in 1991 and built by the SFCN shipyard for Ponant Cruises, the original vessel helped define the boutique luxury cruising experience. This 36‑inch (≈91 cm) model faithfully captures that legacy, handcrafted using the traditional plank‑on‑frame method and the finest premium woods — Red Cedar, Teak, and Mahogany — for a warm, authentic finish.

    Craftsmanship & Bespoke Process

    Every model is a bespoke creation, built by experienced artisans who blend traditional shipwright techniques with exacting modern standards. We build to your complete satisfaction. Throughout production you receive detailed photo updates at each key milestone so you can follow progress and request refinements:

    • Hull construction — precision plank‑on‑frame assembly
    • Deck detailing and superstructure — hand‑carved fittings and accurate rigging
    • Final painting, varnishing, and finishing touches — museum‑grade surface protection

    Final approval is yours: we do not ship until you are delighted with the finished model. Each piece is inspected for fidelity, fit, and finish before packing.

    Secure Packaging & Worldwide Delivery

    Your model is protected for international transit in a custom wooden crate with multi‑layer cushioning and internal supports. Shipments are handled with insured, trackable service to ensure safe, reliable delivery anywhere in the world.

    Materials & Specifications

    • Model length: 36 inches (≈91 cm)
    • Construction: Traditional plank‑on‑frame
    • Woods: Red Cedar, Teak, Mahogany

    History & Heritage

    Le Ponant is a distinguished three‑masted schooner launched in 1991 and operated by Ponant. Measuring 42 meters (138 feet), the yacht blends classic sailing elegance with modern seaworthiness. Built in France with a durable aluminum hull and carefully engineered rigging, Le Ponant offers refined accommodations and an intimate scale that allows access to remote ports and expedition destinations. Renowned for its balance of exploration and comfort, the yacht has visited the Mediterranean, Caribbean, and polar regions, earning a reputation for understated luxury and exceptional service.
