      Hello boys…been a while since I was last here.

      I'm after any information, photos, anything concerned with building the Motorflote push tug, featured in Model Boats magazine way back in December 1985, written by David Metcalf.

      I have the article that appeared in the magazine and the plan, but as always, more photos of the full size craft and models are needed.

      Any of you guys build one? Any info, build tips etc, would be much appreciated.

      I did build one back in the '80s, just after the magazine came out, and found it great fun to use..but I've forgotten most of how I did it, and all my build photos got lost during my divorce.

      Cheers guys,

      Rich

          Hi

          If you check this link out on Mayhem there may be some useful info, Page 2 of the 3 has some pictures.

          **LINK**

          The thread is a bit disjointed probably due to previous forum problems, some pics not directly showing but they do come up if you click on the Icon,

          Regards

            Thanks LB…I remember that thread well, the boys tore into my Motorflote ideas like a cat with a mouse, all good fun though.
