R/C model of a preserved Dutch steam tender.
| The S.S.Christiaan Brunings is a museum steam ship preserved in running
order at the Vereeniging Nederlandsch Historisch Scheepvaartmuseum, where
she is kept in full working order, providing trips to the public during
summer season. She was constructed of steel in 1900 as tender and pilot
boat to the Dutch Icebreakers and to this end she is fitted as a coastal
Icebreaker in her own right.
The kit is the first of a new range of models designed to be powered by a steam engine or standard electric motor. Instructions for both units are included. The kit contains a plated glassfibre hull with all portholes and rubbing strip detail moulded into the hull. A fully detailed set of glassfibre mouldings for the superstructure, boiler casing and aft hatch is included. The deck is from marine grade plywood and a full set of computer generated printed parts completes the wheelhouse assembly. Also included is a full set of metal fittings, plus a full size plan and instructions and to complete the model a set of vacformings, propshaft, prop and tiller. |
