Viking Model Boat

Description

Vikings have long been a source of fascination for history buffs and casual admirers alike. Their reign over northwestern Europe spanned several centuries, leaving a lasting legacy that has been depicted in stories, literature, and films from their era to the present day. If you’re a fan of Viking history, adding the Viking model boat from Premier Ship Models to your collection would be an exceptional choice.

The Vikings were renowned for their iconic longships, meticulously designed for speed and versatility on the water. These ships featured both sails and oars, allowing them to navigate swiftly and efficiently in various weather conditions and seas. The shallow draught of the longships made them uniquely capable of voyaging across oceans, as well as navigating rivers and estuaries with ease.

Known for their conquests and settlements, the Vikings established colonies in places like Iceland, Greenland, and were even the first Europeans to reach North America. Evidence from the year 1001 shows that Leif Eriksson led Viking explorers to North America, centuries before the arrival of Spanish and English settlers.

The Viking tales of exploration and adventure continue to captivate audiences today, appearing in popular culture and films. At Premier Ship Models, our skilled craftsmen will create a custom Viking ship model for you, paying exceptional attention to detail and craftsmanship. Each model is designed to a museum-quality standard, making it a valuable piece for any collection. To preserve its condition, we suggest displaying your model in a protective case.

With over 500 different model ships and boats, including both historic and modern vessels, Premier Ship Models offers a diverse selection for enthusiasts. Explore photographs of the Viking model, along with other pieces from our Standard, Premier, and Custom Ranges on our website. Feel free to inquire about specific models and securely place your order for worldwide shipping.

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.
