the family, on board with the
model, for the commissioning 
of the first "B.C. Super Ferry" 
with the Mayor of Vancouver
Ships and Submersibles

We're very proud of our reputation in the field of model ship building, and our association with the local ship yards and marine architects on the West Coast of Canada.      Our largest client for ships,  was the B.C. Ferry Corporation, and we've been building their models since the introduction of the first "Super Ferry"     Vito, is a comparatively small shipyard here on the B.C. coast, but they've built some high profile vessels.       Our first for them was the "Bonavista Bay" a Husky Oil Anchor Handling Tug.    Later came the Canadian Coast Guard's vessel "Samuel Risley", and  more recently, for Polar Design, was the Mauritius National Coast Guard's patrol cutter.

Safety Equipment Display
DUNLOP BEAUFORT

supply a vast amount of the safety equipment on vessels built here on the West coast, and around the world.

This model was part of a traveling display for trade shows around Canada. the U.S. and the United Kingdom.

The model was over eight feet long, and stood about seven feet high, and showed a section of a Ferry, from the deck to the water line, with escape chute deployed.

B.C. FERRIES  STUDY MODELS

These models were built to aid at the planning stage of the latest B.C. Catamaran Ferries.

Color schemes for the lounge area and the layout of the bridge  were seen first on these models.

Traffic layouts .. and the loading of supplies to the food elevators was also a phase where these models became very useful. 

We are proud to have been a part of that process.
