Can anyone identify this boat ?
« on: June 04, 2022, 07:18:13 pm »

Hi everyone
I've been to a toy and train fair today and picked up this for £2.50


It's definitely a kit as it has writing printed on some parts

Agree


Original prop, enlarged rudder but a fairly recent motor.  I wonder gently what is above the cabin roof!


The wire nest is the roost of the KK bird!
