This is a very professional company to deal with. The models they produce are 1st class with precise attention to detail. I purchased 2 models AHS Centaur and HMAS Sydney II. Both of which are proudly displayed at Coledale RSL.

Absolutely amazing, thank you Seacraft, both the naval vessels that I served on were exact representations which will give me lasting memories. The packaging and delivery were excellent, if I could give 6 stars I would.

I recently purchased the trio of 100cm Olympic class ocean liner ship models (Olympic, Titanic and Britannic). The models are made with high accuracy. I was particularly impressed with the accuracy of the war time camouflage paint scheme applied to the RMS Olympic model. These models are fine works of art and I highly recommend these models. Also the packaging is a work of art. The models are packed securely within a wooden crate and heavy duty box for maximal protection. Thank you so much.

Thank you very much for your review, Malcolm. It is wonderful to hear that the HMS Victory model has found a home in your office and that you enjoy admiring its craftsmanship each day.

Everything arrived undamaged and complete. These models are museum quality. I definitely recommend for anyone who looking for a model of outstanding craftsmanship and build quality. I purchased for my father and he is in awesome of how detailed it is and said everything is how it was when he served on the HMAS Gull.

David, our team was delighted to read your wonderful review and to see the photos you shared, especially the one of your parents standing behind the model of the ship your Dad served on. It is such a meaningful photo and means a great deal to us. We spend a lot of time researching each ship and carefully crafting every detail from wood with meticulous attention to accuracy, so that our models replicate the real vessels as faithfully as possible. We hope these models bring back many fond memories for those who served with such dedication aboard these ships for our country. May the model stand as a lasting tribute to your Dad’s service and be treasured and passed on to future generations. Thank you very much. Best regards, Seacraft Gallery team

I initially purchased a pre-built wooden ship model through Amazon.ca marketplace. I was concerned about the packaging of this item being sent from Australia. Therefore, I purchased it through Amazon - they have a good warranty and return policy. Well, I was so impressed with the packaging ... you'd have to run it over with a truck to damage it; that I bought another [for my man cave :) ,but directly from Seacraft Gallery in NSW, Australia instead of through Amazon. I saved about $100 [CAD] by doing so AND the Australian dollar is about equal to the Canadian dollar to boot. I met "Jenny" at their outlet but through eMail only [info@seacraftgallery.com.au ]. She was a pleasure with whom to deal, very personable too and she responded to all my questions quickly. In conclusion, Seacraft Gallery has a variety of models ... take a look at their website. And don't be afraid of damage due to shipping or hassle due to the exchange rate. Gordo, Metro Vancouver, BC CANADA

Thank you so much, Gordo, for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful review and for trusting Seacraft Gallery with not just one, but two models — your 75 cm HMS Victory and 50 cm HMB Endeavour. We’re especially pleased to hear that you were impressed with our careful packaging and felt confident enough to purchase your second model directly from us in Australia. It was also a pleasure assisting you throughout the process and answering your questions. Thank you as well for sharing the lovely photo of your Endeavour in her new home. She looks fantastic on display! We truly appreciate your recommendation from all the way over in Metro Vancouver, Canada and hope both models bring you many years of enjoyment in your man cave!

I have very recently purchased Seacrafts SS Oriana, P&O's "The Queen of the Seas", and I have to say that I was privileged and overjoyed to receive, open, and display this fine grand model. The wooden packaging case was "First Class" with absolutely no damage whatever so, and the free delivery was also super-fast! The exquisite fine detailing on Her has to be seen to believed, much better than my photos justify, and the onboard LED lighting really brings Her to life, both day and esp at night! All in all I am very happy with my purchase, moreover investment! I was the one who originally initiated this ship to be built by Seacraft, and I am so overjoyed with their craftmanship, so much so that I may now also request them to custom make another couple of ships that I also travelled on in the 60's, those being Shaw Savill's "SS Sothern Cross" & Shaw Savill's "SS Northern Star" which also both sailed Down under here on a regular basis. What's more Seacrafts wonderful Receptionist Jenny, was ever so incredibly helpful with all the information knowledge that I asked of Her, she is a credit to the Company indeed! Thanks to All at Seacraft, for their professionalism and their wonderful artistic hand-built workmanShip... You will definitely not be disappointed by the works of art, that they produce!

I'd give them `10 stars if i could. They have built models for me before from scratch even if they haven't stocked them. My 2 models look fantastic. "The Edmund Fitzgerald and the RMS Titanic" wake up my living room. I would definitly attach pics but every shot i take simply doesn't do the actual model justice as it does in real life. These guys always respond quickly to emails and queries. Shipping always arrives well protected. I'll be back for sure.

Seacraft Gallery are an absolute wonderful team to deal with,I first saw HMAS VENDETTA PreMod on a website and made some enquiries on her purchase, having served on her 65-66 before modification (OPEN BRIDGE). Jenny looked after me through the purchase and when the ship arrived I was so overwhelmed by the workmanship and detail that these people have achieved inmaking these models. I spent a small amount of time assembling the showcase which also is of high quality and sets the model on a higher standard. Thankyou Seacraft Gallery you have made me even prouder for serving on her. I am enclosing some photos of her before and after, thankyou

Thank you so much for your kind words, Alan. It was an absolute pleasure to look after you throughout the process, and we are truly delighted that the HMAS Vendetta has exceeded your expectations. Knowing that you served aboard her in 1965–66, before her modification, makes this model all the more meaningful to us. Thank you also for sharing the photos of her before and after — we love seeing our models in their new homes, especially when they carry such personal significance. Enjoy the model and best wishes.

I can't say enough about Seacraft Gallery. The pics on the website really do not do the models justice. What arrived in the post (which was fast) was beautifully packed and exceeded my expectations!! I'm already eyeing off potential spots to display a second ship.
