    Project: Cancelled!
    Hi All, After receiving the model of the tug Atlantic. And close inspection of the instructions. I regret to say this Project is being cancelled! The instructions are just pictures. On a cd, there are no written instruction what so ever! There are a few measurements given. But, not enough are given! To build this model! So, I have decided to send her back! And order the Tug Smit Nederland 1:33 Scale….. Oh, for such a big model. Why would they use a wooden dowel. For the rudder post! This post goes through a lot of stress. They should have used a
    brass rod
    instead! And her skeg is all made of laminated ply! Which is then shaped into a skeg. It's a great model they should have done a better job! The best part of the model is the Hull! It's a 1/8" thick hull very heavy duty! And all I wanted to do to the model. Wasn't going to be possible do to it's design! Hi Doug, No I'm not calling the manufacturer! That's not my job!!!😁 I'm so disappointed, I don't want it any longer! Cheers, Ed
