Got home today & found this in my front room, wow thats big.

A friend of shmbo dad passed away & this was in his loft along with a paddle steamer part built, i got this one.

It would seem i have two sets of planes both same ship but differant scales.

On one set it say's ZWART ZEE 53" cant find anything that looks like the planes.

The original 1:1 Zwarte Zee was built in 1963 and built in the Netherlands. As to your plan go here: http://www.modelboatmayhem.co.uk/forum/index.php I am a member here and they know an awful lot about RC boats and the types, plans etc. You have to join but it is free, they should be able to provide you with info and the correct plan to use John.

Thanks lads for your kind help, i have seen this pic on the net but it's not the same. Maybe there was an older one built the funnel & stern are not the same.

I can only assume it's not the Zwarte Zee.

Ok lads dug a little deeper the ZWARTE ZEE on completion in 1933 was the largest salvage tug afloat.

Sorry for the hassel.

No worries, at least you have the correct vessel now. Looks a nice model should be awesome when RCed.
