As far as I know it is general workboat. It is an attractive model and sails well if you are interested in working models. Mine has a pair of 385 electric motors (quite small motors) with speed control and rudder plus working spotlight and navigation lights switched on and off by radio. Unfortunately, the lights aren't really bright enough to seen in daylight, so I am looking forward to a proposed evening session at our club's water sometime.
I have also used my Samson as an icebreaker - not the ideal vessel for such things but I managed to clear enough water for other boats to sail.
