Title: 3 Hull Glasgow
Post by: scotfriend on October 15, 2014, 03:41:49 AM

Hi folks,

i have now started my newest project, a paddle tug with the hull made out of three. Sounds strange and it is. The middle section of the Glasgow hull is straight this helps a lot in this project, the straight section is 80mm fwd and aft of the driveshaft. I have two hull's from ship wreck's and a brand new one, the idea is cut of the bow from hull no.1 and stern of no.2 and use the middle part of the new hull and then fix them together. The tug will also have bigger wheel's created from two set of Glasgow wheel's. Length over all will be 4 feet 4 inch long and 1 feet 8 inch wide. The main layout is based on the Tug Anglia.

I keep you updated, regards Hans.
