Warship Selection These pages are out of date. In January 2006, Swampworks closed up shop. The operation is for sale so it may reappear someday but no hard data exists as yet. Battler's Connection and various folks in Canada have acually expanded production into some interesting areas. I have not had time to catch up on the current status. (Anyone have time to spare? If I have the data, it's easy to update the pages...)

These pages show information on warships that have fiberglass hulls available. Since availability tends to vary, you need to check on price and availability with the builder. Contact information is included.

Ships by CEF Convoy Ships

The CEF number is an attempt to quantify the potential combat abilities of a ship in this hobby for comparison. More info can be found at the Great Lakes site. We have a web based CEF calculator for you to play with.

Spring '03: New hulls have been announced but are not included yet.


Fiberglass hull Sources

The NABS website has information on hulls produced by Ralph Coles.

The NABS website has information on hulls produced by Bob Pottle. Bob is doing his residency so has limited time to make hulls. Ask politely and be prepared to wait and with luck you can get one of his very nicely made hulls.

The NABS website has information on the convoy ship hulls made by Eric Broderick.

If you want a liberty ship hull, send an email to Jason Barron.

Email Swampy or visit the Swampworks website for a full range of combat warship hulls, kits and supplies.

Email Charley or visit the Battler's Connection website for combat warship hulls, kits and supplies.

Having bought at least one hull from each of these suppliers, I strongly recommend all of them. Email Terry McKinzie for information on his hulls.
