Antique model steam tug

[craigctt]

I'm open to sensible offers on this. It's very old and everything besides the old paint is in good condition. It's a traditional planked vessel with still good timbers. I bought it around 5 years ago and have done nothing with it since. It was on display in a restaurant for about 10 years and before that in an antique shop window for many many years before. The only other history I have is from an old local guy is. As he can remember a wealthy gent who owned a Manor House used to sale it around his lake pulling a dinghy with him in it. How long ago I would not know, nor who or when it was built. Anyway the vessel is 47inches long, 13inches wide and 24inches from the keel to the top of the funnel. To carry it is a two man lift as it's very heavy. The boiler 8inches x 4inches looks absolutely great and whoever made it was a credit to them. The compound steam engine also looks like a superb feat of engineering. Everything is all still there and nothing I can see is missing. Telephone 07967 266405 if you like to view or send me a message and make an offer
