Has any member made one of theses yet ?

http://www.clydemodelboats.co.uk/Hulls(2991478).htm

There will be a few moulded at the end of the month or early next month.

The Rem G is scaled at 1/72..

Seen the real ship on the internet looks intresting..

I have a hull for it from Clyde Models and it's a cracker!

Sonar · « **Reply #2 on:** January 18, 2017, 11:28:44 am »

I know it is scaled at 1;72
So What would the dimensions be ?

Thinking on getting one myself.

gingyer · « **Reply #3 on:** January 18, 2017, 11:31:39 am »

It's approximately 50 x13"

It is a bit of a beast it will have presence on
The water for sure

Sonar · « **Reply #4 on:** January 18, 2017, 11:38:51 am »

Large for sure.

Have you started yours ?

How are the plans / drawings ..all full size .

gingyer · « **Reply #5 on:** January 18, 2017, 11:43:49 am »

There is a long story behind how I got my hull from Kim.
I bought the hull only

As of yet I don't have drawings and I haven't started it,
It will be a while before I start it.

I am just going through all the details myself now.

Prices ect .

Noticed some of the images on the net show no rear deck crane I guess this is removable.

Or some sort of removable dock crane.

I never made it so there was no way it could have just fallen off

The big cranes were removed from them all at some point.
There is also it's Step-Sister KL Sandefjord

It's a cracking hull, well worth buying.

Sonar · « **Reply #9 on:** January 18, 2017, 08:29:02 pm »

Order placed.
But could be a while before I get it as they have just relocated and still sorting themselves out.

Sonar · « **Reply #13 on:** January 24, 2017, 06:32:45 am »

I. Will know when Clyde models have all the information together

Brian60 · « **Reply #14 on:** January 24, 2017, 05:53:56 pm »

The hull lines look similar to my stril barents - even the colour of it is my final colour! Shame I destroyed the moulds I could have made some cash, but I thought there was only me around here with an interest on offshore craft

Kim · « **Reply #15 on:** January 25, 2017, 12:05:52 am »

Hi
Brian, your Strill Barnets looks more like our Skandi than our Rem G, But nothing like our X ... We are interested in offshore to.

Regards,
Kim

Brian60 · « **Reply #16 on:** January 26, 2017, 03:08:54 pm »

Keep up the good work Kim

I'll mention it to Aimee as she wanted a hull from my moulds but it was too late, I'd cut them up and dropped them in a skip. The similarity between the Stril and the Skandi ships I think is because they come from the same builder - Vard. In my case the yard designation was 1-06. If your hull is the skandi skansen the yard number was AH 04

Kim · « **Reply #17 on:** January 27, 2017, 12:26:14 am »

Thanks Brian,
I know there are a few offshore guys about, but probably shy to post their work..... cause those European guys just make near perfection look far to easy!

Regards,
Kim

PS Sonar .. your motor details are on my website or an email away.

Sonar · « **Reply #18 on:** January 27, 2017, 06:37:10 am »

great it is all getting closer and coming together.

very much looking forward to starting this one even if I am not as good as others I guess I can just do it all again if I am Not happy with the way I have done it,

Just like I did the Springer.

Kim · « **Reply #19 on:** April 11, 2017, 11:54:17 pm »

If anybody is interested here is a small portion of the Plug being prepared, it's a video and hosted on our face book page (So my apologise to non facebook users)
Plans also available (Sonar)...

Kim

Due to camera issues I did not get a photo of Rem Gambler at Dortmund , it was built by a Russian guy out of all the boats I think that one was of the best in show . It had twin variable pitch props . Did any one get a picture ..

Batfish the link to the Skandi models you posted, built by Hans Dorp. He is an absolute monster not only with his builds but the rate at which he can also build them! He does have a facebook and a website of his own by the way.

Here's a link to a 120 pages of offshore vessels with around 20 photos per page.

http://www.captainsvoyage-forum.com/forum/windjammer-bar-maritime-interest/general-maritime-interrest-from-cruise-to-the-mercantile-marine-and-all-ships-between/428-world-s-offshore-vessels

If you get sick of looking at them just click through to the main page and there are photo categories of every type of ship known to man!
