    I just noticed you have working anchor chains, great job! I wish their was a pond near by you could go to! I guess you are stuck to the bath tub like me too!

Revell 1/144 Fair Play Tug Boat
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!

    Jose Miguel:
    Looking at your knuckleboom crane, tells me that you are a great craft master.
    I will be facing soon the same situation.
    My crane is made in your homeland I believe.

M.F.A Tracker
This is my M.F.A Tracker . When originally purchased it had the large and heavy 850 motors in it and old electronics , after a close call with a fire on board I decided to refit her out with modern Brushless motors and over rated Escs powered by Lipo's . Works out a 1/3 rd the weight 3 times the speed and run time over an hour . So a great result

Oh yes , sound effects donated by nearby Tug 😊
