Haul of the day: A sailboat

[dieastra]

I got a sailboat today. And the best part? I didn't pay a cent for it. Because I had gotten a voucher from my furniture store for my birthday back in October. Time was running out on it so today I went to look for some goodie. And I found this.



I didn't know it when I bought it as it was all folded up in a box but you can actually really set or take down the sails. How cool is that?



All you need to do is pulling up the golden thing at the rope here. And if there happens to be no wind at all, you even have oars:



I'm quite happy with my purchase! So which of my figures should take a sailing trip?

Nice. I like how real all wooden parts look, especially the paddles.

Yeah, that was one of the things that drew me back to the shelf a few times. Usually either you get a cheap boat and it looksk cheap, or when you want it to look good it is much more expensive. But the quality for this relatively little money is quite stunning.

They hadn't it on display fully put together, so I had to open the box and use my imagination. I am really happy about it.
