Half Hulls

Welcome to GiftsNautical's Collection of Authentic Half-Hull Replicas!

Celebrate great American sail boats, or commemorate your own favorite sail boat with one of our superior Half-Hull replicas! With Nearly 100 different hulls to choose from, we're sure to have the right hull for you!

The art of making half hull models is as old as shipbuilding itself. Half hulls were traditionally crafted by ship builders to give a three-dimensional shape to their hull designs and aid as a model in the construction of the real boat. Over time, sailors, boat enthusiasts, and model collectors around the world began to value half hulls for their own artistic and intrinsic value. Today half hulls adorn the walls of offices, living rooms, libraries, restaurants, and pubs worldwide.

All of our Half-Hull replicas on Gifts Nautical are constructed using only the finest woods and hardware. Such woods include seasoned mahogany, teak, laurel and hard maple. Other materials include teflon coated dacron, stainless steel cable and waxed marine brand twine for riggings. Parts are made of sterling silver, brass or chrome. Special leather, varnishes and paint is directly ordered from the shipyards.

Additionally, each Abordage Half-Hull comes with a certificate of authenticity; proving the master who made it, the country of origin, and more. All Half-Hulls are also attractively framed on solid hardwoods, and accurately painted with at least two coats of paint. Five coats of lacquer are also applied, and the model is sanded and polished at each stage, giving the work a radiant finish that protects and preserves.

GiftsNautical's Half-Hulls are truly of the highest standard and make unexpected yet surprisingly refreshing gifts. Not just beautiful, but informative, and a piece of history, our Half Hulls will truly be enjoyed by the sailor in your life!

I would like to thank you and the team at JMX. In September 2005, my family moved to a home. I began looking at dining room furniture that I could purchase for our home. We spent many weekends visiting stores within a 25 radius of home in a small village in Hertfordshire. The quality of British and European furniture left me concerned with how long the items would last in a very busy household, who all sit and eat together daily. I came across the JMXCO web site while looking for a lighthouse for my son’s bedroom. As I have always admired Amish style durability and ageless designs, I thought that I could approach your company to find out the possibility of having furniture made in America and shipped to me in England. My first contact with Linse was very hopeful, who confirmed that this could be done. Carolyn spent several months helping me understand what an extension, skirt and apron were. She was so patient with me, when things were not making any sense at all. Often times we would email each other up to three times a day. Our Dining table chairs, lighthouse bookcase and lighthouse clock arrived last week- 20th July 2006. The workmanship and the eye for detail are second to none. I now understand what the extensions are--my extended family can all sit around the table without having to use the patio table at the end of the table to fit everyone around. The lighthouse bookcase did not make it into my son’s room; it now has pride of place at the top of the stairs. My family would now like to rename our house “The Lighthouse.” We can whole heartily recommend JMX to any of our friends and family. We are now looking at purchasing other furniture for our home, I am sure that this new found relationship that I have with your company will continue for many or years to come.

I am very pleased to tell you that I have received the "Endurance" model ship in perfect condition. Thank you for the careful packing. It is a very fine and beautiful replica of this ship, and when I look at it, I can almost sense the Wings of History, and can hardly wait to build the diorama in which it shall be placed. It has been a pleasure doing business with you.
