About Billing Boats

Billings Boats have been in business since the early ‘50’s. The company was started by Mr Ejnar (Ed) Billing, a former WWII RAF pilot, working as an Architect in the town of Esbjerg in Demark. Ejnar Billing developed boat kits that were constructed in the same way that you would build a real ship. And the “plank on frame” concept, pioneered by Billing, is now used by all model boat manufacturers around the world today. Over time ABS plastic hulls were introduced to the range for modelers who wished to use their models with Radio Control (R/C).

Today the Billing Boat company is known as the first and finest manufacturer of model boats, producing some of the finest model boats in the world, using the latest technology and Danish craftsmanship and know how.
