Mr Darby info
« on: June 08, 2017, 07:20:51 am »

Hi All I'm building this tug and found lots of pictures of her, and as she is now Atlantic Salvor.
I cant find any pictures of her bridge interior, any help please.

Unfortunately, no. The hull is toast. As big as it is, it is no match for a 225 lb person falling on it. I need to find something the same size to use the motors and control system, or else, sell it all.

Yours is coming along very well and should be fun to use when it is done.

Cheers

Tom
