They make so many kits, and versions of several of those, that aftermarket may not have caught up yet.

Here's all Scalemates has that I could find:

Wooden deck?  Don't know because I don't use them.  I use paint effects.

Accessory parts? I was really happy to find a set marked "equipment for navy ship A" (capitalized just that way :-)  ) from S-Model, a Chinese company whose material is sold on ebay.  I've never encountered a Set B.

This set A has a photo-etch sheet with ratlines, davits and ship'swheels and a couple of plastic sprues (similar to the Skywave/ Pitroad WWII and modern ship accessories) with boats, anchors and small guns.  I used some parts from this set on a Combrig Aurora

I suppose if you shop around long enough in Shapeways, you may find some useful vents, but I haven't found anything yet.

Good luck,
Rick
