Instantiate an object from a static script?

I am having some problems instantiating an object from a static script. I am not quite sure what to do about this.
This is where I am trying to do it at:

Code (CSharp):

1. public static void SpawnShip()
2.     {
3.      
4.         PlayerName = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("NetworkManager").GetComponent<NetworkClientManagerHUD>().playerName;
5.         if (NetworkClientManagerHUD.playerName == "Snow")
6.         {
7.             Destroy(GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("DestroyMe"));
8.             Instantiate(shipList.shipS001, GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Spawns/Gates/1-50/001").transform.position, transform.rotation);
9.             MouseOrbit2.playerTarget = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("Player");
10.             target = MouseOrbit2.playerTarget.transform;
11.             Debug.LogWarning("Client is running!");
12.             return;

This is the script I'm trying to get it from:

Code (CSharp):

1. using System.Collections;
2. using System.Collections.Generic;
3. using UnityEngine;
4. using UnityEngine.Networking;
5.  
6. public class shipList : MonoBehaviour {
7.     public GameObject ship000;
8.     public GameObject ship001;
9.     public GameObject ship002;
10.     public GameObject ship003;
11.     public GameObject ship004;
12.  
13.     // STATIC LIST
14.     public static GameObject shipS000;
15.     public static GameObject shipS001;
16.     public static GameObject shipS002;
17.     public static GameObject shipS003;
18.     public static GameObject shipS004;
19.  
20.     void Awake()
21.     {
22.         shipS000 = ship000;
23.         shipS001 = ship001;
24.         shipS002 = ship002;
25.         shipS003 = ship003;
26.         shipS004 = ship004;
27.         Debug.LogWarning("Ship 0: " + shipS000);
28. }
29. }

If anyone has any ideas it would be greatly apricated..
