Description
Diesel Tugboat | Classic New York Harbor 85′ diesel tug. This model is the first in Bluejacket’s new line of “Great American Work Boats”. It is designed for the less experienced builder and is popularly priced. Like so many of Bluejacket’s more recent kits, this tug has been designed with a carved base wood hull (approx. 80% of the final shape), laser cut wood for items such as the deck house, etched brass and custom cast Britannia metal fittings. The plans and instruction manual have been developed to be clear and concise. As a further aid to the modeler, an independent web site has been developed to answer questions, provide guidance, and establish a modeling community.
