Title: Old Robbe Model
Post by: Skimmer Fan on June 29, 2012, 08:39:41 pm

I have bought an old Robbe model boat called Orkney Express. I can only find a couple of video's on utube which do not help. The model is a bit worse for wear and the inside has mostly been removed. I emailed Robbe and they replied that all they had was an electronic copy of some instruction in German but no assembly plans. Does anybody out there know where I might be able to get some information in English? Preferably assembly drawings.

Have you tried  Googling the name.  I found several from abroad and needed a language translator, but it might be worth pursuing.
