   Hi Brinkman,
   The reason I asked is because I’ve been commissioned to build one for Model Expo. They now have a license to reproduce all of the Midwest models, and the one I’m building is missing part of the instructions—but I think I can figure it out.

   I’ll post some pictures before I start planking the hull.

   Chugalone,
   I picked this up from an estate auction.
   So, sadly, there are no build instructions, nor build info available.

   SouthportPat... in a few weeks I will resume working on my models. One of them is the Dusseldorf Fireboat which was given to me. I completely took it apart and lengthened it 8 inches (200mm). What a task! What radio do you have and how many channels?

    Hi Brinkman:
    Do you or someone else have a build log for this Midwest Fireboat model?
    I started to build one just like yours and would like to see how you build it.
    Thanks
