Hello all. Thank you for allowing me to join the forum. From what I have seen so far, it is a large wealth of knowledge and very handy tips, and ideas.
I have attached a couple of pictures, of my tug, which I built when I was 20ish. Approx 1/35 scale, loosely based on the Smit Nederland. I got the free plan with the 1988 Scale Model Boats magazine, and enlarged it via a photocopier, until I was happy with the size.
The hull is planked, with Fibreglass on the outside. Very solid, and alot of fun, to operate.All the fittings are handmade, apart from a few store bought ones.
Thanks for looking.
