The Marie Jeanne is a Dundee type fishing boat, built for tuna fishing. This particular model was designed to meet the demands of deep-sea fishing, requiring a boat that was both strong and fast. After several unsuccessful trials, the designers finally opted for a boat of 50 to 60 tons, an ideal compromise between stability and speed.
The Marie Jeanne was crewed by a dozen men, and its design allowed it to face the difficult conditions of the sea while remaining fast enough for distant fishing. These boats were essential for tuna fishing, a crucial sector of the maritime industry at the time. Their large sails and sturdy structure made these boats reliable fishing vessels.
The Marie Jeanne scale model allows modelers to relive this aspect of maritime history by recreating an iconic vessel of traditional fishing.
