Product Description

A unique and elegant addition to you nautical decor!

The Captain's Gig Wooden bookcase adds flair and atmosphere to any room, and display shelves turns it into a wonderful cabinets and/or bookcase.

Gigs were invaluable pieces of equipment when in port or moored outside. Referred to as rowboats by land-bound folk, a gig was easy to lower overboard, needed minimum crew, and was quick to dispatch.

When stowed, it nested in the long boat or pilot boat secured in the center of the main deck. Our lapstrake (overlapping strips of wood) gigs are not seaworthy, but they most certainly look like it!

This item measures 19.7" x 8.7" x 47.2"
