About Us

The South Bay Model Shipwrights was founded in September, 1982, by Jean Eckert.  The clubs focus is static scale ship models but all forms of ship modelling are of interest.  Wood is the primary medium, but many materials such as plastic, paper, card stock, and resin have been used in our models.  Scratch and kit builders are welcome.
