About the Gulnara Built in 1834 and launch for service in 1835, the Gulnara is a great example of the transition from sailing ships to steamships. The steam engine of this ship was regarded as an auxiliary drive, and the ship was still fully sailable. Serving in the Sardinian Navy until 1861, the Gulnara was…
About the HMS Beagle Launched in 1820, the HMS Beagle was a ten-gun brig-sloop of the Royal Navy. From taking part in celebrations for King George IV’s coronation to carrying Charles Darwin on its second voyage, it is soaked in historical intrigue. At just over 90 feet long, the HMS Beagle was a behemoth in…
About the Cutty Sark A historic ship, the Cutty Sark was built in 1869 as a clipper ship, used as merchant ships in the 19th century. The Cutty Sark began life in tea trading before moving on to the trade of wool in Australia. The design of the ship is a fascinating read. Notable features…
About the HMS Endeavour There could not be a more fitting name for the HMS Endeavour. Commanded by Lieutenant James Cook, it was a British Royal Navy ship that embarked on a voyage of discovery from 1768 to 1771. In April 1770, HMS Endeavour became the first ship to reach the East Coast of Australia…
About the Mayflower You can’t get any more historical than The Mayflower. In 1620, the ship transported the first English puritans, or pilgrims, from Plymouth to the New World. After two long months at sea, the pilgrims eventually made it to the New World and the rest, as they say, is history. The Mayflower may…
vincent bekaert2024-09-13After a Dutch company told me they were no longer taking orders, a Chinese company did not respond and an American one did not offer the desired finish, I ended up at Premier Ship Models in January 2024. I opted for a premium finish from 6-8 months for the build of a 1990 Hinkley Sou'wester. With nothing more than a top view and a side view and a lot of photos they got to work. 9 times I got an update with photos to assess the progress and make comments. I happily made a photo album of this. I asked for quite a few corrections, which were all carried out. The only downside was a huge underestimation of the shipping costs. But the ship was very well packed and delivered in September. The sailing ship had suffered a bit on the journey, but I was able to repair that easily, except for the downhaul - it was too simple and would break off again immediately. I left that out (it would still be nice to receive a "real life" version). The correspondence was very good, my sincere thanks to the team for the great job!Douglas Holmes2024-09-10The first time I used Premier Ship Models was for a kit of the Batavia, this year. (2024). I was so happy with the service that when I was looking at getting the 'ghost ship' The Flying Dutchman, I checked around online and was extremely pleased to find they had it. Not only that but they were cheaper than other model ship kit suppliers I have used in the past. And again, on top of that it only took 8 days to get from placing the order in the UK to having FedEx deliver it on my doorstep in Western Australia. To put that into perspective, I am still awaiting delivery via Australia Post for some parts from Sydney NSW, three separate orders placed 15 days ago.... Extremely satisfied and would recommend them to anyone.cashrc2024-08-13Premier Ship Models did a great job of finding the kit I was after, an Aeronaut Pilot boat. Once found, it shipped quickly, but was held up in customs. Premier reached out to me and customs, and I received the kit a few days later. Premier is now one of my go-tos for European and Asian rc ship models.Bob moore2024-08-12fast and friendly service. thank you.Tim Fletcher2024-08-12Best place for your model needs without a doubt. I had a little trouble with an order (not Premier's fault) and I couldn't have asked for better support. Whenever I needed an answer or had a question the people at Premier responded usually within 24 hrs. They never left me waiting for an answer. Best business I have seen for customer service.William Madar2024-08-12Excellent selection.
