Celebrating our 7th Year in Business

Did you know that Cast Your Anchor is celebrating its 7th year in business this month? Oh how time flies when you’re building a ship model. It all started off with a visit to the Ontario Science Centre 40 years ago so in a virtual sense, Cast Your Anchor has been in existence for forty years. . We’re still having fun and hope to be around for many more years.

Ship Model Fittings Catalogue

Cast Your Anchor is continuing to work on our new ship model fittings catalogue. It will be available this month. For those of you who have indicated you want a copy, we will be mailing it out to you soon.

Make Ship Model Building Easier

Just in time for Christmas, Cast Your Anchor is offering a free How to Assemble a Wooden Model Ship DVD with every kit purchased over $200. This DVD explains in simple, easy to understand terms how to build a wooden ship model. A must have for both the novice and experienced ship model builder. Remember that in ship model building there are no “right” techniques. It’s always beneficial to understand the techniques that others use in assembling a wooden ship model.

When you place your order either on line or by phone just indicate that you would like a copy of the Best Ship Modeling Assembly Instructions DVD in the World!

Own a Piece of the Bluenose II

A new offering from Cast Your Anchor. The Bluenose II kit from Artesania Latina, assembly DVD, tool kit and the book Bluenose II Measured Drawings by L.B.Jenson all for the low price of $279.95. But wait – there’s more. Buy this set and we’ll throw in a piece of the hull of the Bluenose II – a $50 value. This historical piece is authenticated by the Bluenose Company Store in Lunenburg NS. What a great incentive to build the best know Canadian vessel ever! Need another incentive? If you have been thinking about building the Artesania Latina Bluenose II model ship, now is the time to act. The current kit has been discontinued but will be replaced with a revised edition. The good news is that the revised kit has better detailing. The bad news is that the price has substantially increased. The new price will be $299.95 just for the kit. Back to the good news - Cast Your Anchor has 7 of the discontinued kits left. So yes, it’s time to act.
