SS France was a ocean liner, constructed by the Chantiers de l'Atlantique shipyard at Saint-Nazaire, France, and put into service in February 1962. At the time of her construction in 1960, the 316 m (1,037 ft) vessel was the longest passenger ship ever built, a record that remained unchallenged until the construction of the 345 m (1,132 ft) RMS Queen Mary 2 in 2004. WE ARE SHIP MODEL MANUFACTURERS We offer a wide range of premium and museum quality, hand-crafted custom-built wooden model boats: Tall Ships, battleships, sailing and fishing boats, tanker and containers, cruise ships, speed boats and modern yachts. Entirely hand made according to craft tradition, our boat models are made of wood, fiberglass or metal by specialized craftsmen. Their work is guided solely by concern for the quality and accuracy of finishing. Structure WOOD: Our boat models are mostly made of acacia and are built for the lined hull and deck is lathed. Moreover, since wood is a living material, choice and drying are the subject of special attention. Resin: Made of polyester and fiberglass, our models are built with the same process as the real boats. A silicone impression is taken on a master made from the original 3D plans for the production of hulls. Deck fittings and interior decoration With a selection of detailed pictures we can create the deck fittings in brass or chrome plated brass whose production meets the requirements of actual naval items. All decoration and wing elements are shaped and sewn by hand using the original materials where possible or substitutes if the original material can not be used for our models. Solid Wooden Support All wooden support have the same quality criteria than our boat models. The supports are made of wood varnishes and paints for boats for other models, they follow the same varnishing and sanding steps as our boat models. A brass plate is included with the name of the boat.
