Occre 1/45 Scale Gjøa Model Kit

In 1845, the most well-equipped expedition of its era set out into the Arctic to conquer the Northwest Passage: 128 men and two warships. Not a single one returned. Almost sixty years later, a Norwegian managed it with six men and a small 21-metre fishing boat. That boat was the Gjøa, and this is the model kit that recreates, plank by plank, the ship that redrew the map of the world.

With the OcCre Gjøa model ship kit, you'll build the vessel Roald Amundsen sailed to complete the first-ever crossing of the Northwest Passage at 1/45 scale — the sea route linking the Atlantic and Pacific through the Arctic ice. A wooden model ship kit designed for seasoned builders and for anyone ready to take on a model with genuine history behind it.
