Doran Bay Ships offers discriminating homeowners, interior decorators, yachtsmen, collectors and curators the world's finest collection of historic model ships. These models are the finishing centerpiece for any waiting room, office, boardroom, lobby, restaurant, clubhouse, den or living room. Looking for that unique gift for a retiring executive, recognition of merit, or remembrance for a visiting dignitary, our models make simply magnificent and unforgettable gifts!

All of our ships are individual pieces of art, carefully constructed from scratch - not from kits. We use only the finest exotic hardwoods, brass/bronze fittings and fully detailed rigging/sails. Our ships are built according to strict specifications from original ship plans. Depending on the scale and complexity of the model, hundreds to thousands of hours of skilled effort are required for construction. Check out Ship Details for more information on construction techniques used.

Welcome Aboard and let your imagination fly!
