As the name suggests, this is a scratch build sort of tug. The hull is based on a (very small) Pinacce photo of a model steam open boat. I did not fancy making a steam unit (time is the problem) and I had had an idea of doing a tug for quite a while. I liked the shape so started in the usual way. I wanted to keep the cost down and so almost everything is scratch made, though a few bits were "borrowed" from where I work - an engineering firm. Most of the work on this model is more of an experiment for my next tug which will also be from scratch but will have everything working. The "Archer". The winches are at the moment none working, the doors do not open, I have no idea if there is any tug that looks anything like this but I am very pleased with the result. I hope you like it.
