OcCre Mississippi – river steamboat kit with 19th-century character
OcCre Mississippi is a wooden model kit in 1/80 scale that recreates a classic American river steamboat. The model takes its character from the legendary paddle steamers that sailed the Mississippi River throughout the 19th century, along routes stretching from Lake Itasca in Minnesota down to New Orleans.
For retailers, Mississippi offers something different from traditional sailing ships. The large paddle wheel, riverboat theme and connection to America’s inland waterways make it easy to present to customers looking for a maritime kit with a distinctive personality and a different visual language.
With 1702 parts and an estimated build time of around 650 hours, Mississippi is an advanced project for model builders who want a long and decorative build. It is a strong assortment choice for stores that want to broaden their range beyond frigates and galleons with a model that has clear river steamboat appeal.
