961.0. "ocean going tug boat kits?" by DASXPS::SLADE () Thu Apr 13 1989 13:16

    I am looking for some pointers as to where I can get a catalog on
    electric R/C boats.  I am specifically looking for an ocean going
    tug.  
    
    A few years ago I saw an add in one of the R/C mags. from a 
    distributor in the UK who had just what I wanted.  I lived in West
    Germany for a few years and they had quite a few kits there that
    I don't see in the States.  The only one that I have seen here is 
    the tug from Robbe.
    
    Any help would be appreciated!

961.1American Boat Modeler for sourcesGRANMA::WFIGANIAKThu Apr 13 1989 15:275
    Try a mag called American Boat Modeler. They have all kinds of places
    you can order catologues from. Another source is Model Ship Builder.
    I know Dumas boats put out a tug and a huge river type tug as well
    as Mid-West models has a tug but I don't think it's an ocean type.
    Good Luck.

    47in in length and hasa 12in beam made of fiberglass and diecut
    ply. Kit  1217. Probaly could order through Tower Hobbie or other
    mail order outlets.
