Description
This Galleon weathervane is a great weather vane design with the masts, rigging and characteristics nicely defined in the weather vane figure. Galleons were used as cargo ships and warships mainly in the 16th to 18th centuries during the age of sail. There were some very famous Galleons such as the Padre Eterno which was the biggest ship of the time, the Golden Hind which circumnavigated the World and was captained by Sir Francis Drake, Ark Raleigh which was designed and built by Sir Walter Raleigh and later was known as the Ark Royal having been the flagship of the English fleet during the Spanish Armada and many more
This weather vane comes in a standard black finish but can also be finished with Gold lettering on the N S E W and gold detail on the arrow tip and the arrow quill

Steel construction with primer and powder coating:
The galleon weathervane is made from strong 3mm thick steel primed with iron phosphate primer and finished in a durable hammered effect black finish. Clear mastic can also be used on any joints for example where the rod is inserted and secured into the bracket to seal and further weatherproof and prolong the life of the steel bracket and rod. Painting the weathervane in the future is also possible with a good quality exterior metal paint to freshen and restore the colour. Weather vanes or weather veins as they are sometimes called create a nice feature and can be installed on garden sheds, huts, workshops, out houses, gazebos, poles, cottages, houses and many more

If you have the option to arrange onwards delivery if the weathervane can be delivered to an area we ship to that could be one potential solution.
