The Reinke 13M:

The Reinke 13M is a cruising yacht by the renowned designer Kurt Reinke. It is characterized by its robust aluminum hull and excellent sailing characteristics. Many owners have undertaken long voyages and circumnavigations with this yacht, proving its reliability and stability.

Here you can also find my battleship model. 

Changes to the Original:
This is a smaller version of my Reinke 13M model that can be printed on the A1 mini and shows the ship in motion on the sea

To print the model in the desired size, the hollow spaces had to be filled, and attachment points on the rigging reinforced and added. 
Furthermore, a water-simulated base was added to make it appear as if the ship is sailing. For this, the lower part of the model also had to be adjusted.

Processing Notes

To remove burrs from the sails, I recommend sandpaper as a deburring tool can quickly cause nicks
