Yep. I build a model of that thing once when I was a kid. Was a big enough model that the tackle and rigging were fully functional.

I have done a lot of reading on this subject over the past few days. She is repairable, but it will take lots of time and money. Most of her 5” thick teak top deck had been removed for the restoration process, so it looks like much of the irreplaceable items were removed during the restoration process.
