About the SS Rotterdam 1959

For anyone who loves ships, the SS Rotterdam V is a true masterpiece of naval architecture, design, engineering, and craftsmanship. Built between 1956 and 1959, she is an iconic ocean liner that was once the pride of the Holland America Line. After a long and successful career as a passenger/cruise ship, she is now a permanent fixture in her home port of Rotterdam, open to the public and a true testament to Dutch industrial heritage.

As a Dutchman and model builder, I knew I had to recreate this magnificent ship in miniature.

After carefully studying the original builders plans, I set to work crafting a highly precise model in scale of 1:400. It was a true labor of love that took several months to complete.

My scratch-built model showcases the beautiful proportions, revolutionary design, and elegant curves of this magnificent ship in a stylistic way, capturing the essence of the ship. It was truly an honor to recreate this masterpiece in miniature.

But my journey with the SS Rotterdam V didn't end there. I had the privilege of taking my small version of the ship to see the original in person. It was an unforgettable experience to get up-close and personal with this magnificent ship, to walk her decks and see the attention to detail that went into her construction.

The result was a stunning photo shoot that captured the beauty of the original ship and the precision of my model. It's a tribute to the craftsmanship and artistry of shipbuilding and a celebration of Dutch industrial heritage.

I'm thrilled to share my research and model making with you and to invite you to appreciate the beauty and elegance of the SS Rotterdam V. Whether you're a ship enthusiast, a lover of Dutch design, or simply appreciate the beauty of a well-crafted model, I hope you enjoy this tribute to one of the world's most iconic ocean liners.
