BUGSlER 3 was one of the first harbor tugs to be operated by the
Bugsier-Reederei & Bergungs-Aktiengesellschaft of Hamburg.
BUGSIER 3 is a highly maneuverable ship,
equipped with a powerful engine. It has been designed for towing and warping
other ships. Compared with today's more stream-lined tugboats, BUGSIER 3
looks rather conventional. Its two big masts and the rather angular shape of
the superstructure give the boat a personal and functional, yet particularly
attractive touch of its own.
The model of the harbor tug BUGSIER 3 has
been scaled down to 1:33 from original drawings. Its design will meet the
requirements of even the most demanding modeler. Difficult-to-fashion parts,
such as hull, bulwark, funnel, Life-boat, rudder shells etc. are supplied in
the kit as extruded parts. A lot of effort has been put into
the careful reproduction of such items as capstan, salvage and warping winch,
tow hook and other miscellaneous parts. These injection molded parts,
contained in the set of fittings, order No. 348, simplify the assembly and
cut building time drastically. The wood parts and stern parts fashioned from
ABS plastic come pre-shaped. All this helps the modeler to build a grand
looking model with a minimum of skill. Thanks to its correctly matched
E-motor the models attains remarkable performance.
Instructions in German, English, French and Italian. The Quickie
kit contains the Quick build plan, R/C installation plan, a ready-formed
hull, bulwark, funnel shells, life-boat top and bottom parts, turntable
rudder shells, formed parts, die-cut stern parts of ABS plastic, printed and
die-cut wood parts, strip wood, window glazing, wire, flags, decal,
miscellaneous parts.
