Nice model(s) Arne !.
Is de vessel in Esvagt colors probaly in fact a also an OSA supplier like the another ?.
One another point; containers on board a supplyboat will never being stacked. It makes it impossible to pick them up by offshore cranes !.
Anyway, happy modelling season !.
regards, Roy

Re: Scheepsmodellen / bouwtekeningen
Hello Roy,
many thanx for your kind words.
Yes, ESVAGT DEFLECTOR was the former OSA Supplier WASSERTOR. My colleague Chris organisized this one for me in 2013. He bought it for only 60€.
When I got it, it looks like a wreck . These were the best conditions to rebuilt it :
ESVAGT DEFLECTOR is a phantasy product, which based of the former Robbe kit REMBERTITURM/ WASSERTOR:
Thanx for the info about the stacked containers. I think, your right. I'll replace them .
The other vessel is the OSA supplier HOLSTENTOR, which was built in the scale of 1/50, too. The gear of the vessel is rc-controlled! It's owned by my colleague Dennis.
The third vessel we checked yesterday, was the tug SMIT NEDERLAND of my colleague Dirk. A nice and compact model, which based of the famous kit of billing boats.

Re: Scheepsmodellen / bouwtekeningen
You are becoming a big fleetowner Arne! Must be around 25 vessels. How do you manage your RC equipment. Has every vessel her own receiver and ESC, or do you shift that type of equipment from vessel to vessel? And how many frequencies do you operate? Any favourit brand? I mainly use MPX, 2 old (40 Mhz) and 1 new 2,4 Ghz. There is a F-14 with Navy stick to operate my Smit Finland, but I prefer the MPX mc 3010 for manoeuvring the sticks with both hands. Still "fighting" with the mixers to get rudders and ESC's on one stick. For one of my nephews I converted a 3 Euro toyboat into a twin propellor tugboat. Has nothing to do with modelling, but just for fun. No rudder and steering with the props, which only go forward, stop and reverse. Lipo battery too heavy and replaced by 3 x 900 mA Nimh cells. Rgds, Klaas.
Re: Scheepsmodellen / bouwtekeningen
For me it was easy to recognize the model as "Wassertor" Arne !.
For 37 years ago I use to work together with this supplier on board "Smit Lloyd 21". Our base was Douala in Cameroun. We dit have differend charters, so I never met de "Wassertor" at sea but only in Port du Peche in Douala.
Those where the days my friend.

Re: Scheepsmodellen / bouwtekeningen
Preparing my fleet for a new season I picked up the idea to build a radar for my Bugsier 3. On the last barge I sailed on, we had a Decca radar from the mid fifties. No drawings available, I had to work from some pictures and memory. I know it's not esthetically correct putting a British radar on a German tug, but in my view the Decca scanner looks better than a straight bar. Up to you to decide! Regards, Klaas.
Re: Scheepsmodellen / bouwtekeningen
Gistermiddag is mijn 42 jaar oude sleepboot naar de werf geweest om het verfwerk wat op te laten halen. De pas toegevoegde radarmast in het Havana-bruin gezet. 's Avonds nog een rondje gevaren. Als kind van een jaar of tien zag ik deze boten voor het eerst op de Schelde bij Antwerpen. Firma Letzer en Gerling hebben er jaren mee gevaren. Vind het nog steeds karaktervolle schepen. Zal ook wel een beetje aan mijn leeftijd liggen. Gr. Klaas.

Re: Scheepsmodellen / bouwtekeningen
Geen dank hoor Joop. Als het op 8 juni een beetje wil passen kom ik even langs om ze te bewonderen. Ben dan op doorreis naar Denemarken via Wischhafen. Gr. Klaas
