Model Slipway was formed in 1989 to produce model boats of the best detail, designed to look and perform like their full-size counterparts. Aimed at model makers with some experience, the range of kits is constantly expanding to provide a broader field of choice and interest.

The large scale kits are based on a glassfibre hull and come complete with underwater gear (prop shafts, rudders, propellers). Decks and superstructures are constructed from styrene plastic to mimic the finish of modern vessels. All kits are complete including a set of fittings together with constructional drawings, plans and building instructions. Paints, adhesives and radio control equipment are not provided, however, recommendations are given in the instructions.

If you have built a few wooden or plastic models, or have some modelling experience in other fields, as a “first” Model Slipway scale project we recommend the following kits: **

Al Khubar Harbour Tug
Shamrock Fast Patrol
Range Safety Service Vessel
Loyal Class Fleet Tender
