Her waterlines replicate the ones of U.S. Brig J.W. PARKER, built in Belfast, Maine, by C.P.Carter & Co. in 1874.
A note about that ship appeared in The New York times dated 6 March 1887 concerning a big cholera epidemy in Buenos Aires.

All single parts of the model are named in english, so as their materials, and all of them are grouped in 4 bloks: brig body, masts, sails base, sails add.
