This model of a German North Sea FishingTrawler was built from a Graupner kit in January 1974. The crew are South American, the dog Welsh the owner English and her home port is Maldon. She is powered by a 6volt 400 motor coupled with a Viper 15amp controller and my Spectrum radio outfit. The 6volt 10 amp gel cell also acts as ballast.

Scratch built to 1/24th scale this is a model of a famous coastal barge built in 1904 at Mistley for the Horlock fleet. Sailed to victory in the1928 Thames Barge Match with Chub Horlock at the helm she won five "firsts" in her one race - a feat never achieved before or since. You can read about this exciting race in Chub's biography "Mistley Man's Log". S.b.VIGILANT can now be seen at Topsham in Devon where she is under extensive restoration.

Damon, I suggest you look at the website of AMBO - the Association of Model Barge Owners for more information also the excellent site of Ivorbittle.co.uk where you will find all the information you are likely to need about building a model barge. incidentally its the sails that are radio controlled on my model, not the mast! it is flat bottomed but has a detachable keel weighing 3kg. The overall weight is 6kg. Good hunting!
