    Hi Guys,
    I have installed the name Al Khubar 2 in all the required positions.
    With the decals there is also a decal with the name Sharjah but I donโ€™t know where this should go on the Tug. Anyone know where this decal is supposed to go?

    Wasnโ€™t that made of iron.

    I havenโ€™t posted for a while but have been carrying on with my build.
    Does anyone know what the light set up is on the Al Khubar harbour tug.
    I have the port and starboard navigation lights and the search light sorted.
    Cheers Ian (Rockbag)

    Hi Guys,
    I am trying to source a dark green paint for the deck of my Al Khubar 2 tug. At the stage I am at the moment spraying is not an option therefore it will have to be tin and a brush. Any advice would be appreciated. I am located in the UK so this should be a consideration.
    Thank you. Rockbag

    Feluccas are a traditional Egyptian sail boat normally seen on the River Nile.

    The superstructure build is progressing nicely and Iโ€™ve managed to paint the hull.
    Pleased with the progress so far.

    That was a pure guess.
    Didnโ€™t the Royal George sink off Spithead in the English Channel?
