    Les pièces se montent parfaitement. Parfois il faut un peu limer les petits copeaux pour que ça s’ajuste sans trop d’effort. C’est le 1er que je fais et suis impatiente d’en commencer un autre. Bravo aux concepteurs !!

    Beautiful model. Unfortunately, I couldn't get the mechanisms to move, despite carefully sanding and waxing every moving part.
    Nevertheless, it was fun building it and it looks great.

    Built this last year and enjoyed it. Turned out really good. Wish I could put a picture on, no parts missing and the instructions were excellent.

    La construcción de este modelo me demandó unas tres horas promedio durante una semana. Tengo 9 años y el armado de este barco fue una experiencia fascinante!!

    Very interesting model to build. Took me around 18 hours - on & off.
    Noticed a couple of mistakes in the instructions which threw me off a bit, but all in all, a very enjoyable build. I would highly recommend it, and I’m definitely looking forward to building the next one…

    An excellent detailed model, as for me there are flaws with a crane, more precisely with a long rope, one part can pull the other, so I added a length to the part with a lift. Review on the Incredible Gears channel

    The research vessel was an absolute joy to build. The instructions were clear, detailed and easy to understand. I had so much fun building it, I kind of didn't want to finish it! I did however, and now have a beautiful functional model. It takes patience and attention to detail, but I enjoyed every minute of the process and look forward to building my next Ugears model.

    Es hat viel Spaß gemacht dieses Modell aufzubauen, incl. meiner Fehler, welche aber leicht zu korrigieren waren. Die Funktionen entsprachen meinen Vorstellungen und sie klappten. Die Feinheiten der Vorlagen und die Ausarbeitung, einfach Spitze. Danke.

    My 9th wood model (among ugears and competitors), the best so far. The eye for details is meticolous. Abundance of moving parts. Interesting engine mechanic.
