A gift shop featuring items of the sea: Music, DVDs of great sea adventures, nautical wear, dive gear, toys, games and ship building kits (such as the exquisite US Constellation American Frigate Wooden Ship Model Kit by Artesania Latina pictured right).

We’ve had hundreds of requests for ship building kits and model ships through the years and decided to include links here to some of the best kits and models we have found. Particularly noteworthy is the kits of Artenania Latina: They are considered to be the first of the European manufacturers to produce easy-to-build, generously-sized models. Manufactured in Barcelona, Spain, Artesania Latina kits contain large, easy-to-follow plans and simplified pictorial instructions that illustrate every phase of construction.

All proceeds benefit the work of The Maritime Heritage Project.
