RMS Queen Mary was a famous ocean liner sailing primarily in the North Atlantic Ocean from 1936 to 1967. She was built in Scotland along with the RMS Queen Elizabeth to become part of the Cunard Line. Her major sailing route was from Southampton to New York City. Queen Mary’s maiden voyage started in May of 1936 and after few months in service, she gained a Blue Riband in August which is awarded to cruise liners crossing the Atlantic in record highest speed.

The outbreak of World War II resulted in Queen Mary being transformed into a troopship which carried Allied soldiers. Queen Mary was refitted again to a passenger liner the year following the end of the war. Due to decreased profits of the Cunard Line, the RMS Queen Mary retired in October of 1967 after the last voyage from Southampton to Long Beach, California. Nowadays she serves as a tourist attraction in Long Beach and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

After 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!

The 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.

Premier 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.

Best 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.
