Modellers Shipyard Catalogue 2012

Dear Modeller
We are a leading supplier of world class historic wooden model ship kits, plans, books, instructional DVDs, tools, ship fittings and timbers. We offer our customers a
worldwide mail service.

As experienced modellers were dedicated to providing you with assistance and advice with all your modelling needs. Whether youre 10 miles or 10,000 miles away
we'll be able to assist you personally.

For those interested in Australian maritime history, we manufacture our own colonial series of wooden model ship kits.

Successful completion of a model ship does not demand any particular skills. Rather, it simply requires neatness, an eye for what looks right, an unhurried methodical
approach and above all, patience.

Models are built in four main stages:
1. The framework and deck assembly
2. Individual planks are shaped and fitted to the hull and the masts and yards are assembled.
3. The hull and masts are painted and/or varnished.
4. The standing and running rigging are completed.

Whilst the time necessary for completion will depend on the complexity of the particular model, as well as the keenness of the modeller, it should be said that even the
smaller models in our range will take some time to finish. A time scale of between 6 and 12 months from start to finish would not be unusual. Our kits are divided into
skill levels so we know you will find a kit that is right for you.

The project should always be seen as a pleasure rather than a chore with any minor problems that crop up adding to the ultimate satisfaction of building your model. We
encourage you to take photos of your work as you progress to record the development of your model.

If you are a beginner and would like to find out about more about model ship building why not think about enrolling in one of our online courses. These courses will be
available in our online learning centre soon.

We are a one stop shop for ship modellers. Our priority is your order and we ensure that we despatch all orders as quickly as possible. If you are passing through the
Blue Mountains you are most welcome to call in, see our showroom, and collect your order in person.

Who are Modellers Shipyard ?
Modellers Shipyard has been serving modellers for 30 years. We are a family business. Importantly though, we are experienced modellers so we know what you are
talking about when you ask for assistance. If you would like to visit us, please phone for an appointment. When people do visit we want to make sure we give you our full
attention.
Do I need any previous modelling experience?
Many of our customers have never built a model before contacting us. We offer kits, tools and DVDs for the first time modeller.
What tools are needed?
We offer a beginners tool pack which contains all the tools your will need to get started with your hobby. We also provide a range of tools for the more experienced mod-
eller.
Do I need any books?
All our kits provide instructions which tell you what to do. We have an extensive range of books and also offer great training DVDs on different aspects of modelling.
Should I built a kit or make a model from scratch?
We recommend that first time modellers build a kit. Kits have the advantage of introducing modellers to the approaches and techniques of wooden model ship building.
For people who decide to build from scratch we recommend that you have access to a very good workshop, range of tools, and are able to make your own planks and
most of the fittings yourself.
What is double planking ?
This is a simple method of applying two layers of planking to the hull, instead of one. The first layer is usually limewood, or a similar timber which is soft and easy to work
with. The second layer is thinner and more decorative timber such as walnut or mahogany. This layer looks beautiful when vanished. The advantage of this method is
that any hills or hollows or mistakes in the first layer can be levelled off before the second layer is fitted.
Do all models have sails?
Generally models in which sails are not shown in the photograph do not have ready made or cloth and patterns in the kit. When a photograph of a model, does have a
sails either fully set or furled , sail cloth and pattern is supplied. A few such as the Shenandoah, Flying Fish and Resolution have ready made sails supplied with the
kit. We can supply ready made sails at an extra cost.
Is a display baseboard included in the kit?
This depends on the manufacturer. Generally Mantua do not include a display base in their kits, however some do have a simple ply cradle. Most other kits do have a
display base of some sort, but it may vary from that shown in our catalogue or on the lid of the box. A decision on the final display baseboard can be left until the model is
complete.
Is it better to paint or clear vanish?
Thats up to you- most kits have been designed with a variety of naturally coloured timbers, with the idea that you will use vanish. Varnishing can be easier than painting.
Is a name plate included?
Sometimes. If you are wondering whether the kit you wish to purchase has a nameplate, please give us call. We can supply name plates at an extra cost.
Which models are suitable for a child?
We offer a range of models for children, just check out catalogue.
Why buy a model ship from an internet based business?
We specialise in wooden model ships and carry a larger range of stock than the local hobby shop. We offer a personalised service for all your modelling needs. We
have customers on every continent including Antarctica.

KITS
Model ship building is a rewarding and creative hobby. Whether youre building a model for the first time or youre an experienced modeller, youll find a kit here that will
bring you many hours of enjoyment. We have high quality kits that everyone can afford. Our kits are imported from Italy and we manufacture our very own kits relevant
to Australian colonial maritime history.

We have identified a number of kits that would be suitable if you are building a model kit for the first time. These are identified as Skill Level 1 & 2. Also we have a few
models that would be suitable for a 12 + years old child with adult guidance which are identified as Skill Level 1. All our kits have been categorised under Skill Levels.
These levels are explained below.

All our kits come with all timbers, fittings, plans and instructions to complete the model. Also all our model ship kits have two layers of planking (double planked) except
where identified.
Skill Levels

We have divided all our kits into six Skill Levels. These levels are described below. All Skill Levels require the modeller to be able to follow written instructions and
to read and interpret plans & drawings.

The Skill Levels are:

Skill Level 1 (SL1) kits can be built without prior model building experience, using simple hand tools. Some parts in Skill Level 1 kits require cutting & fitting of timbers.
Kits in this skill level are suitable for a 12+ year old child to build with adult guidance.

Skill Level 2 (SL2) kits require slightly more skill and some prior experience using hand tools. Some parts in Skill Level 2 kits require cutting, fitting and shaping of tim-
ber pieces.

Skill Level 3 (SL3) kits are intended for the person having some prior experience building wooden model kits. Skill Level 3 kits contain parts that require cutting, fitting,
shaping and fabricating wooden and possibly metal parts.

Skill Level 4 (SL4) kits are intended for the experienced modeller. Before building a Skill Level 4 kit it is recommended the modeller construct a Skill Level 3 kit.

Skill Level 5 (SL5) kits are for the experienced period model ship builder.

Skill Level 6 (SL6) kits are for the expert period model ship builder.

The three most important characteristics for a successful modeller are patience, patience and yet more patience. Before cutting or gluing anything give a lot of thought to
the task at hand, re-read the instructions, re-examine and interpret the plans. If in doubt contact us for assistance, sometimes just talking with another modeller
can help clarify the issue at hand.

Modelling wooden ships is a very rewarding and creative hobby. Take your time and enjoy the craft.

1.1 Modellers Shipyard
MODELLERS SHIPYARD has been manufacturing model kits since 1986. They are the only manufacturer of wooden model
ships in Australia. Their historically accurate kits are faithful interpretations of the original vessels. Their Australian colonial
series of model ships is extremely popular. The comprehensive plans and high detailed English instructions will assist you

parts and fttings.
We also have available a 2 DvD set on THE COMPLETE GUIDE ON HOW TO BUILD THE COLONIAL SCHOONER
Port Jackson. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION SEE THE TRAINING MATERIALS SECTION OF THIS CATALOGUE.
COLONIAL SCHOONER PORT JACKSON 1803
In September 1788, only 18 months after the founding of the new colony on the
shores of Port Jackson now better known as Sydney Harbour, Governor Arthur
Phillip sent a message to his superiors in England requesting two vessels to be sent
out in frame, with a few shipwrights to put them together. After considerable delay,
drafts were prepared for a Schooner for Port Jackson.
The original drafts are still in the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, England and
are the raw material on which our drawings and kit of the Colonial Schooner Port
Jackson are based.
We have no records available to show whether in fact our schooner was actually
constructed or if so what become of her, however, our model is in every way an
accurate representation of an early Australian colonial schooner as constructed by
the infant industry that emerged during the 15 years waiting for a completed response
to Governor arthur Phillips original request.
Adrawing of the Mercury owned by Mary Reiby an early Sydney merchant appears on the
Australian $20 currency note. The Mercury is identical to the Port Jackson-Schooner.

HM CUTTER MERMAID 1817
The HM Cutter Mermaid was built of teak in Calcutta; she was less
than a year old when commissioned on 16 October 1817. For the
next 3 years lieutenant Phillip Parker King, Rn, used the Mermaid
for her designated task of Exploring and Surveying the Coast of
Australia. Mermaid survived three voyages of discovery under
Kings command but it was the third voyage involving a complete
circumnavigation of the Australian mainland which draws closest
scrutiny. on 8 May 1819 Mermaid sailed north, conducting the frst
reliable survey of the Great Barrier Reef Inner Route, opening it
to commercial trafc. From then onwards King ran running surveys
along the entire coastline until, with Mermaid leaking badly, he knew
this survey was over. At the location King named Careening Bay,
the hull was patched up for 3 weeks until 9 october. During this time
King carved HMC Mermaid 1820 on the single Boab tree at the
rear of the bay. this example of historic graffti remains to this day.
Mermaid sailed and entered the calm waters of Sydney Cove on 9
December 1820, some 25 weeks and 3 days since sailing, having
circumnavigated the continent. Unfortunately, ironically, she ran
aground in the very route she had opened to shipping off the present
site of Cairns, in 1829, and was lost. In January 2009 the wreck of
the Mermaid was found by a team of marine archaeologists from the
Australian National Maritime Museum. The site of the wreck has now
been declared a maritime heritage site.
A double plank on bulkhead construction with laser cut plywood.
The kit comes complete with all timber, rigging cord, and wooden

COLONIAL SLOOP NORFOLK 1798
The Sloop Norfolk was built on Norfolk Island in 1798. The 25 ton sloop was
constructed from Norfolk Island pine. Governor Hunter lent the Norfolk to Bass and
Flinders with the task of proving the existence of a strait between the mainland and
van Diemens land (named tasmania after 1856). Flinders and bass were under
orders to pass through the strait and return by the south of Van Diemens Land.
Flinders, Captain, George Bass, and there eight crew departed Port Jackson on the
7 October 1798. They had been allowed twelve weeks for the voyage. In her they
completed the frst circumnavigation of van Diemens land.
They made many important discoveries on this voyage. On the north coast of
van Diemans land they spent time exploring Port Dalrymple, the future site of
Launceston. On Christmas day they climbed Mount Wellington which now overlooks
hobart, tasmanias capital. the norfolk sailed back into Port Jackson on the 12
January, 1799. Governor Hunter, upon Flinders recommendation, named the newly
discovered passage, Bass Strait.

ISABELLA - Paddle Steamer 1912
Paddle steamers formed a vital part in opening up the inland of Australia. The inland
river system of the Murray, Darling, Lachlan and Murrumbidgee formed a network to
connect inland communities across the Australian states. Paddle steamers have been
plying these inland waters since 1853 travelling along the river system from Goolwa
at the mouth of the Murray to the inland towns of Bourke on the Darling, Wagga
Wagga on the Murrumbidgee and Forbes on the Lachlan.
The PS Isabella is typical of the working boats that plied the river system in the late
1800s to the early 1900s. Working boats like her towed cargo barges up and down
the rivers, servicing the needs and providing vital links for the inland communities to
the outside world. The kit is plank on bulkhead construction with laser cut board.

LONGBOAT - HMS Sirius 1786
the hMs sirius was the fag ship of the First Fleet. this frigate, under the command
of Captain arthur Phillip, led a feet of 11 ships carrying 1350 convicts, sailors and
other passengers, to establish the frst settlement in new south Wales. the feet left
england on 13 may 1787 and after a monumental journey taking eight months the
feet arrived in botany bay between 18-20 January 1788.
The largest boat of the HMS Sirius was the longboat. The primary propulsion of the
longboat was oar power. A pair of men would sit abreast on a single thwart, one man
pulling a starboard oar, the other the port (or larboard) oar. the main duty of the
longboat was to carrying dispatches or transporting the offcers to and from shore.
The HMS Sirius Longboat would have been used to transport Captain Arthur Phillip
ashore in Sydney Cove to raise the Union Jack and claim eastern Australia for Britain
on the 26 January 1788.
The HMS Sirius Longboat was also equipped with a collapsible sailing rig making her
a speedy sailer allowing her to be employed to explore the environs of Port Jackson.
this model of the hMs sirius longboat is double planked with limewood as the frst
layer and teak as the second layer. all parts and fttings are of the highest quality.

european settlement in new south Wales. the feet left england on
13 May 1787 and after a monumental journey taking eight months to
complete the feet arrived in botany bay between 18-20 January 1788.
two years later, when the fedgling colony of new south Wales was
struggling to support itself, the HMS Sirius and the HMS Supply were
sent on a special voyage to transport marines and convicts to Norfolk
Island to lessen the burden on the new settlement. It was here that the
sirius foundered when it struck a reef off sydney bay (Kingston) on
norfolk island and was fnally wrecked on the 19th March 1790.
The HMS Sirius had a relative short career, playing a minor role in
Britains withdrawal from America and a major role in British expansion
into the Pacifc. the hMs sirius was originally named the berwick, and
was built in 1780-1781, at Londons Rotherhithe, then a shipbuilding
village on the Thames. The Berwick was purchased by the British
navy prior to completion and ftted out as an armed storeship. initially
stationed at the Nore, off Sheerness at the mouth of the Thames. She
made several voyages to America during the period 1782-1785 she
visited Halifax harbour, Nova Scotia, New York and the West Indies
before returning to Deptford on 5 February 1785.
on the 23 august 1786 orders arrived from the admiralty to the navy
Board to prepare the Berwick to be employed on foreign service. On
the 12 October 1786 Admiral Howe wrote to the Navy Board requesting
his Majestys storeship the Berwick, be registered on the list of the
Royal Navy as a 6th Rate by the name of the Sirius. The Berwick had
been recommissioned as the 20 gun HMS Sirius to escort the First
Fleet to Australia in 1787-88.

convicts to Norfolk Island to lessen the burden on the new settlement. It was
here that the sirius foundered when it struck a reef off sydney bay (Kingston)
on norfolk island and was fnally wrecked on the 19th March 1790.
The HMS Sirius had a relative short career, playing a minor role in Britains
withdrawal from america and a major role in british expansion into the Pacifc.
The HMS Sirius was originally named the Berwick, and was built in 1780-
1781, at Londons Rotherhithe, then a shipbuilding village on the Thames. The
berwick was purchased by the british navy prior to completion and ftted out as
an armed storeship. Initially stationed at the Nore, off Sheerness at the mouth of
the Thames. She made several voyages to America during the period 1782-
1785 she visited Halifax harbour, Nova Scotia, New York and the West Indies

DOS AMIGOS - Brigantine Schooner 1830
She was a slaver, one of the famous early 19th century Baltimore clippers. She was low-slung and
fast, double-masted, small and agile, painted black to make it easier to hide herself off theAfrican
coast after slaving had been abolished. Her hull was modifed, with space belowdecks to bring the
slaves fromAfrica to Cuba for the sugar plantations. Her last voyage as a slaver was in 1830, sailing
out of the port of Havana on 13th July, with a crewof 34 and armed with a single carronade, 16
rifes and 15 pistols. She was captured by the British brig HMSBlack Joke, with 567African captives

SAN MARCOS - Portugese Galleon
This galleon is a direct descendant of the caracks, large, distinguished galleons,
originally Mediterranean based but later sailing the Atlantic. The name galleon was frst
given to a type of ship from Liguria, built at the start of the 16th century. Initially designed
as merchantmen they were heavily armed, for defence against pirates and other enemies,
but ended up, after 1570, becoming men of war. Although the galleons reached their
greatest splendour when they plied the Atlantic, the height of their development, they
were the result of accumulated experiences on the European Atlantic front and their
experiences as merchantmen in the Mediterranean.
In 1588, King Philip II of Spain put the Duke of Sidonia in charge of the Spanish Armada.
With the goal of invading England, 131 ships and 17,000 men set out for Dunkirk, where
they were to join forces with the Duke of Parma and pick up another 16,000 men. One
of the most important ships of the feet was the San Marcos, a Portugese galleon of 790
tons. She carried 33 guns, 292 soldiers and 117 sailors. Heavily damaged during the

LADY NELSON - 18th Century Cutter
The cutter is a native British design and was developed originally by the smugglers
of Folkestone and surrounding areas. I did not take long for the Navy to appreciate
the merits of the cutters design and were employed in the Navy from the middle
of the eighteenth century to counter the smugglers. The cutter was designed for
speed, adopting an unusually large spread of sail for the size of vessel, deploying
both fore and aft and square sails on a single mast. Cutters excelled at patrol
and despatch duties due to their speed; however they were not suitable for close
inshore work due to their deep draught.

From 1745 to 1748 Granado was mainly employed off the East coast of England
intercepting smugglers and privateers. With the impending arrival of The Seven
Years War the Granado was recommissioned on 26th April 1756. It wasnt until

May 1775 and launched on 27th December 1776. The swan class of 6th Rate sloops
were unusually attractive for the class of vessel, with not only very sleek hull lines
but also the unusual amount of decoration for the size of vessel. They were built just
before the admiralty issued orders that all vessels (especially lesser rates) were to
have the minimal amount of decoration and carvings to save any unnecessary costs,
due to the seemingly ever continuing war with France and other nations.
There is little remaining about h.M.s. Pegasus operational career, but from what little
