This is a video of my little Toby Tug (a seaport workboat in a previous life) very generously given to me by Bob Hutton from Stourbridge Model Boat club. it's shown at Bournville Tug Day yesterday (5th June 2016) on a Tug Tow of a 10 ft tanker - two small tugs giving it a try, when calamity - the front Tug got swamped by another (not very well-behaved) passerby and capsized - leaving Toby to pull both boats back to shore.. Enjoy!

This is Serenity (AKA) Jersey City, she is a reworked and renamed 1:32 scale Tugboat. she measures in at 36" X 9"or 915mm X 229mm her weight is unknown (?) but I estimate it at about 7.5lbs to 9.0lbs give or take some ounces. Serenity is named after my Grand Daughter who is my pride and joy!

I love this Tug since I saw a you tube outbound Hamburg video so I checked a kit and finally realized it, if I had the skill I would have micromotorized it but I'm not capable of, sorry!
