Half Models

Half models were originally built by shipwrights as part of the planning process in the design of a ship. They were used to ensure symmetry in the completed vessel. After the invention of computer design, half hulls were no longer used for ship design, but for nautical art in the homes of collectors. Premier Ship Models offers half hull models for collectors and nautical enthusiasts looking for a unique piece of art.

At Premier Ship Models, we feature half hulls of many different models to satisfy any collector. Our collection includes half hull models of clippers, steamers, schooners, cruise liners, shrimpers, trappers, historic and classic ships, and modern yachts, and boats.

Premier Ship Model is committed to quality and professionalism from manufacturing through delivery and affordable prices. Our half hulls are built using traditional plank on frame construction methods and mounted for easy display in homes, restaurants, corporate offices, nautical clubs, and any other locations.

All model ships and half boat models are crafted with the highest quality materials and attention to detail in the construction process, from the production of the hull shape to intricate details. The model is mounted on a high quality wood backing board, and fitted with a brass plate with the name of the vessel. We offer the option of ordering a personalized name plate for your half model.

Half hulls do not take up a lot of space, making them perfect for displaying nautical art and décor when you lack space for a large ship model. They also make great nautical gifts. The dimensions of each half hull model in our collection can be found on the product information page for that model.
