| HS tugs
Hi my name is Peter and I have been building a HS TUG for about 6 or 7 years, its based on a Kingston mouldings hull and is steam powerd, I had got to the stage ready for paint but have decided to look for some more info about this type of boat before I go any further, also I have decided to cover the ply superstructure in fiberglass sheet (its 0.005 thick) used for model plane wings, The reason is to stop the ply from lifting as it gets hot and wet, so I have had to strip all of the top to fit this, Ill post a few pictures when I find out how to on this site. Anyway what Im after is any pictures of HS tugs or info, they where built to replace tugs lost in WW1 so about 1920 ish there where about 80 built, but I can find so little info. I have had to go of boats built at the same time for fitting design but would like to get it as correct as posable. any info would be helpful. Peter |
