Try changing your script to this:

view source
1local Clicker = script.Parent
2local Object = game.ServerStorage:WaitForChild("smallship")
3local ObjectSpawn = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Regen")
4 
5script.Parent.ClickDetector.MouseClick:Connect(function()
6   local CloneObject = Object:Clone()
7   CloneObject.Parent = game.Workspace
8   CloneObject.Position = Vector3.new(161, 2.5, -91)
9end)

Also if you want to use CFram, you should read a little bit on this article: https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/articles/Understanding-CFrame

I don't think you need the method wait for child since this is a server script. MarkedTomato 810 — 3y
