    Ships/hulls for sale up-date.
    All
    I am planning to sell a few of the extra ships that I have laying around, in order to order some items that I need for this year.
    I am at this time just posting a thrown together list of what I am looking to get rid of.
    Here is the list..
    Oiler
    Wooden hull, sheeted, with decks and superstructure in place, and painted.
    Single motor driving twin shafts through a B.C. single motor to twin shaft gear-drive, with a micro-servo operated mini-mag throttle (wired). Dumas dog-bone universals, props, and rudder installed. Rudder linked to a Futaba standard servo. BDE style small bilge pump installed, plumbed, and wired.
    Water-channeling, through material, and float device installed.
    Needs batteries, and a radio, and this boat is ready to run.
    Asking 200.00 plus shipping.

    Convoy ship.
    Either a victory, or liberty ship (I think).
    Wooden hull, sheeted, with decks, and superstructure in place, and painted.
    Single (wah-ming) motor, (not wired), with universal, shaft, prop.
    Rudder in place. Servo installed, but not linked.
    Has some water-channeling.
    Asking 150.00 plus shipping.

    I also have the following fiberglass hulls.
    HMS Australia/New Zealand/Indefatigable.
    WW1 era British battlecruiser hull.
    Produced by Ralph Coles (Canada)
    With basic plans set.
    Asking 125.00 plus shipping.

    USS Brooklyn
    WW2 era U.S. light cruiser.
    Produced by Swampworks.
    Fiberglass hull, with nice plans.
    This hull can also be used to make a Wichita heavy cruiser (although I do not have a set of plans for that ship).
    Asking 120.00 plus shipping.
    Queen Elizabeth
    British battleship.
    Produced by Ralph Coles (Canada).
    Fiberglass hull, with turret-covers, and plans.
    Asking 140.00 plus shipping.
    If anyone is interested in any of this stuff, please contact me off-list at
    [removed]
    Thanks.
    Mikey

    RE: Ships and hulls for sale I imagine anyone old enough to battle could hold it pretty easily, it's only 4 or 5 feet long and doesn't weigh much.

    RE: Ships and hulls for sale
    Strike Models does carry decks and subdecks for the Brooklyn, and it will fit the Swampy Brooklyn hull. It's not listed on the site, but we do sell them separately, and it'd be about $35 for the set.

    RE: Ships and hulls for sale Zeke, the Littorio ship kit is in progress. This is Stephen's ship, so he also wants it done in time for battling season.

    Stokamoto, we don't have plans for acquiring a Rodney hull at this time.

    RE: Ships and hulls for sale Stephen's made good progress on the Littorio superstructure, but don't have an ETA just yet.

    Zeke, we haven't had any sales or special deals yet, and we haven't talked about anything coming up.

    RE: Ships and hulls for sale Up-date.
    All of these hulls/ships are either sold, or spoken for at this time.

    RE: Ships and hulls for sale Zeke, our prices are generally stable unless our cost of goods has also changed. We're a two-person outfit, we don't have a team of marketers looking at when to raise a price by two percent and when to drop it by three percent. Our costs and business practices are a bit off topic for this thread, which is over anyway since all of the ships have been sold/spoken for. There is contact information on our website if you have additional questions for us directly.
