There is also a kit by OceanMoon:

I think that is much better than the Modelkrak kit.

Oh, I do not have the Modelkrak kit, but I had seen the small parts, which looked better - at the first view. It also includes a S-model sprue as included in their kits of Chinese ships.

Interesting - I don't recall ever seeing both bow and stern decorations before in that time period!

I located a new Yoshino kit from some no name chinese manufacturer (not same as Oceanmoon kit). I have that one incoming to my store, and also considering build her myself.

Price would probably be around 30 Euro from my store.
