There is a huge selection of wooden model ships to choose from (like historical and military ships, replicas of the famous pirate ships, gondolas, and merchant vessels) as well as specialty build options (like ship-in-the-bottle kits).

Absolutely! We have boat models for all levels of builders (beginner through advanced). In each kit’s product description section, you will be able to select a kit based on skill level (beginner, intermediate, advanced).

The majority of builds require a variety of basic modeling tools. Depending on your experience and type of kit, you may wish to add specialty tools to help with various tasks, such as plank benders, clamps, precision drills, cutters, and such, most of which can be found in our store.

Build times can differ based on the complexity of the ship kit and how seasoned you are as a builder. As an example, a simple entry-level kit can take as little as few weeks, while constructing a more elaborate rigged ship will take you several months or more.
