    Hi.
    It only takes one to launch. the funel wheelhouse comes of in one piece and then it takes 5 pieces of lead 130x75x20 after you have put it in the water.then 1 of 12v batery 170x160x130. then two 6 volt baterys and a cast iron burner that burns coal for the smoke.
    the motor is a fan heater motor from a truck and turns a 130mm 4blade prop. would love to put it on steam one day.
    Keith.

    I have used my tugs to tow me round in a dingy, the looks from people watching are superb

    Hi chrys
    Well, at 97Lbs that's quite impressive, you must make a video!

    Hi jarvo
    I'm must say I'm guilty of towing a rowboat while I was in it too.
    People at the pond where amazed at how much power my little Tugboat had.
