Tugboat Atlantic ABS Hull 1:50 R/C Compatible

Model ship ocean tug Atlantic

Construction kit in 1:50 scale with ABS hull and wooden superstructure. Can be converted into an RC model.

History of the original

The model is a faithful reproduction of an ocean-going tugboat from the 70s and 80s. The tugs were built to tow large ships such as oil tankers or cruise ships. Tugs became necessary in the 19th century as ships became larger and heavier due to technical progress and were no longer so easy to manoeuvre in docks and harbours.

Kit features

Our 1:50 scale tugboat kit consists of a high-quality ABS hull and plywood superstructure. All parts are cleanly and precisely prefabricated using the laser cut process. An extensive set of fittings made of cast metal and etched brass parts is included. The model is suitable for RC operation. The shaft system only has a simple plain bearing, the propeller supplied is made of plastic. The extinguishing cannons can be made functional. A model stand is included.
