RMS AQUITANIA
 

Perhaps no other ship in the history of the Cunard Line was more revered than was the RMS Aquitania.

Widely considered one of the most attractive ships of her time, Aquitania earned the nickname "Ship Beautiful". Her greater length and wider beam allowed for grander and more spacious public rooms.  Her exquisite and tastefully executed interiors earned Aquitania the title “The Ship Beautiful.”



RMS Aquitania held the record for the longest service career of any 20th century express liner, carrying 1.2 million passengers. She was the only major liner to serve in both World Wars.

Aquitania was scrapped, as the last four funnelled passenger ship, in 1950, in Scotland. Her wheel and a detailed scale model may be seen in the Cunard exhibit at the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic in Halifax.


 

This primarily wood RMS Aquitania ocean liner model ship features:

- Plank-on-frame hull. This construction method gives accurate hulls, as artisans create the frame of the hull exactly like in drawings. The solid hull method, on the other hand, employs most guesswork on the degree of curvature.

- Windows and portholes are cutouts (not black decals), uniform, and on straight lines.  We are not shy to show the model in large photos. Nothing to hide!

31" long (1/350 scale) $3,590 Shipping and insurance in the contiguous USA included. Other places: $300 flat rate.

54" long (1/200 scale) $5,975 Shipping and insurance in the contiguous USA included. Other places: $500 flat rate.

75" long (1/144 scale) $8,520 Shipping and insurance in the contiguous USA included. Other places: $800 flat rate.

Lighting feature is included.  A ship is not a ocean liner without beautiful lighting. LED light powered by standard 9v battery for your convenience. Our model has realistic and beautiful lighting, including navigation light. Cheap model makers neither care nor able to keep up with our artistry and and engineering ability.

Model is built per commission only. We require only a small deposit to start the process (not full amount, not even half) to start the process. $500  The remaining balance won't be due until the model is completed, in several months.

                                                                                                         

"Frank, Just wanted you to know the ship arrived safely and in perfect condition. I’m very impressed with the build quality and detail. And more than impressed with the packaging for shipment. Just wanted to thank you and your team on a great job and I will cherish this ship always. I may even order another but will definitely order once again from you and your team. Once again thank you so very much. James Buday, Canada, 1/20/2023."

"The model arrived arrived [to UK] two days earlier than expected which was a pleasant surprise. It is a beautiful model and well worth the 7 month wait. Thank you very much, Aquitania will have pride of place in my collection. Once again many thanks for a terrific model it is superb and the detail is stunning. Best Wishes, David, 5/2021."

"The Aquitania has docked on Kauai, Hawaii. She looks beautiful. I am in the process of unscrewing her from packing and can hardly wait to see her in all her glory. I am very grateful for your magnificent ship... David. 7/2011"
