Hi everyone
I don't normally post to this group, but I have a question that I am hoping
that someone can help me with.
Anyway, after going through all our old catalogues and instructions, I
discovered that I couldn't source this boat at all.
My partner, tells me that it was a tug boat, the pieces I have here in front
of me, are red base, in three sections, and white deck, in three sections • also.
It has no writing on the sides at all, and most probably was released in the
early seventies (?)
It wasn't on pause.

Sorry for answering my own post here, but I've just found the boat in question
and it was on pause. What threw me was no writing on the side and I've only
got the hull here in front of me. No cabin or mast etc.
The writing was stickers that were never applied.

So the boat in question was 310 - 1973
Now, if only we could track down that bow, it would be a perfect world!!!

I think I saw an auction for a different tug last night on eBay, no it
was a 311 ferry. I think the hulls might be compatible. I do see these
hulls every once in a while on eBay.

(...) Didn't someone in B-S-T have just a red boat hull for sale or trade? I've posted this there with that in mind. (Wow, all the referents...what an awful sentence!) best LFB (25 years ago, 31-Dec-99, to lugnet.boats, lugnet.general, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)

(...) front (...) the (...) question (...) I guess my main problem when finding a suitable bow, will be the decision to seperate another boat from its bow. As I don't have the 311 ferry, if I won it, I'd have to keep it intact! (what a dilemma) (...) (25 years ago, 1-Jan-00, to lugnet.boats, lugnet.general)
