About the model
A true fairground classic for your layout
With Pirate Island, an extraordinary ride in scale H0 (1:87) moves onto your miniature fair! The elaborately constructed water ride combines two lift hills, two fast drops and an extensive pirate scenery into an impressive overall model.
The special feature: Pirate Island works completely without real water! The boats glide down the drops by gravity alone and are then transported back up via motorized lift hills. This creates the typical ride sequence of a water ride – completely without pumps, water tanks or the risk of leaking water.
With a length of around 60 cm and numerous lovingly designed details in pirate style, Pirate Island becomes a real highlight at every miniature fair.
