description  My father inlaw has a lot to answer for lol!! He has kinda given up rc cars now and moved onto rc ships and boats, so I got the bug too and had to get me a tug boat. Nothing better than a peaceful summers day by the local parks boating pond other than burning some rubber of course!!! As my modelling skills are limited I bought this tug from our local model shop pretty much rtr. Only things really needed to finish her off would be a flag and some scale crew. The kit is from new maquettes and is a plank on frame hull and runs off a 6v- 4.5ah pack with a mfa 500 motor which gives about an hours run time. The only info I have on the tug is a that its a french harbour tug called L'AKRAGAS. Any more info would be appreciated. I know it aint got wheels but thanks for taking a look!!!

Looks like a fun boat. Will you pull my speed boat back to shore when it flips at 50 mph.

An hour at the pond sure does sound peaceful.
