Polaris: The USS Polaris was a screw-steamer procured by the Union Navy in 1864, and was originally called ‘The America,’ before becoming the USS Periwinkle during the closing months of the American Civil War. It served the Union Navy as a gunboat against the Confederate States. When the war ended, the ship was reacquired by…
Ulises: The Ulises was a tall tugboat during the 1960s. At this point in time, maritime traffic was incredibly intense and somewhat disorganised in various parts of the world. It was however, constant and highly important. Maritime activity comes with great risk, even to this day, and so obviously, it was no different in the…

Nina, also known as ‘the little one,’ is famously the ship that housed Christopher Columbus’s cabin. In her early years, Nina was fitted with Latin sails; but then after that, she was equipped with square sails. Since Nina was such a small vessel, she was highly agile and manoeuvrable, but required a sturdy ballast to…
HMS Beagle was built in 1817, and was initially used as a coasting vessel. After this, it was equipped to be used for scientific observations. It sailed through the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and one of the most famous scientists of all-time was onboard; Charles Darwin. Darwin collected a great deal of data, and made…
The Mayflower is the ship famously known for transporting a group of English families to the New World in 1620. They were known as the Pilgrims, and the New World was America. It set sail from Southampton, England, and would drop anchor in Plymouth, Massachusetts. This was where the first permanent European settlement was made….
The Flying Fish, launched in 1800, was a fishing schooner with a shooting building and a great surface of sails. It retained the bragging rights of being an incredibly fast ship for many years, and so owners were able to easily outclass competitors.
There are many stories and legends of the great battles in the seas in the 17th and 18th centuries.

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.
