A very nice Tug indeed. Enough info there to 'scratch build' eh !

What does the Law ( or the owners ) say about copying a boat in model form, and perhaps even selling versions of it  :D

I don't think there is a law in this country against it, don't know about the States tho. You can ask the builder/ designer about copying the plans at model scale. In fact some would even send you scaled down copy, think Damen shipyards are good for that sort of thing.

1:48th scale for my ships. Large enough to show gratuitous detail, small enough to stay married.

Hi lad's  if you think that's interesting why not have a look at rotor tug on google  and the web site's
http://www.rotortug.com/scripts/developments.php
http://www.rotortug.com/downloads/its_paper_2000.pdf
this would be one hell of a tug and a regatta winner evey time .
there is one small prob ,the shottle's would set you back nearly £300 alone (ouch)
