~The Marie Felling was built by Earls of Hall and launched in 1928. Designed by the same team as the Imara, she was a Crown Colony Contracts vessel and judging by the margin notes of the contract, gave rise to the many improvements incorporated in the later Imara, especially with regard to accomodation. Both were designed for the same type of harbour work. From the deck layout up, the Marie Felling is an unusual and appealing vessel. From the single lifeboat carried cross ship on the sub deck atop the forwad saloon and the raised bridge on stilts, not to mention the cross passage through the single superstructure, the massive plain funnel and open funnel deck all combine to give this vessel a unique charm.Model hull is fully detailed, as is the two part superstructure and funnel.

~Peggy is a typical Herring drifter built at the turn of the century. Hundreds of these ships sailed from ports along the East coast of Scotland. Peggy was built in 1907 by Hall and Russel of Aberdeen. Along with a sister ship, the Jeannie, she was built for the Duncan family of Peterhead. During the First World War, Peggy was used by the Admiralty as an Admirals barge. She was also used in the process of laying a cable from Peterhead to Russia for the British and Russian governments. The cable was known locally as ithe Russian cablei. Just before the Second World War, the Peggy left the ownership of the Duncan family.The kit contains over 450 cast white metal fittings, a fully detailed GRP hull and superstructure.

~The SS Talacre is a typical single hatch coaster used in the coal trade of a type that was found by the hundreds around the coast of the U.K. in the golden era of steam. Designed for Point of Ayr Collieries by Crichton, Thompson & Co Ltd., of London she was built by Crabtree &Co., of Great Yarmouth in 1917. Talacre was named after a small village near the colliery. Talacre was finally scraped in 1959 by the Hammond Lane Foundry in Dublin. Realism leaps out of the completed model, as if a turn of a valve will start the anchor windlass or the cargo winch clattering away and the lagged steam pipes to begin steaming and drying out.The hull is of GRP fully detailed on the exterior with plating, double rivetting and strakes.

~ This class of MFV was one of four sizes of wooden boats originating from a directive issued to the Director of Naval Construction in 1942 to prepare a design of small craft to carry out the numerous duties associated with the needs of major and other types of warships at home and abroad, including the conveyance of personnel, stores etc. These craft were also to be readily converted for fishing duties with a minimum of alteration. To ensure that the requirements of the fishermen in various locations around the coast would be met, fishing representatives were consulted on the design. The initial design was for a 61.5ft. boat and later it was proposed to build two other classes, one at 45ft and the other at 85ft. In deference to the Scottish fishermen this was reduced to 75ft., the Scottish fishing industry were of the opinion that this size would be of most use on the East coast. MFV 1219 - Ocean Crest was built by Richard Irvin at Peterhead in 1945 and was based on the Clyde until sold out of service in 1971, becoming the Wexford registered WD33, the name was later changed to Ocean Pearl.Sub deck and superstructure are cut using the latest CNC cutting equipment to ensure accurate fit of parts.
