Tugboat

Hi, Can I get a suggestion for a Tugboat Kit that I plan to build.I would like it around 3' to 4' long. It can be expert level as I have a lot of experience in building. Also what are some good hobby retailer sites in N.A or Europe?


Wow No other suggestions ??????

Re: Tugboat

Hi,
my preferred model boat companies are modelslipway and caldercraft. Both make excellent tug models.
