This
elegant and powerful launch has the following features. The saloon has a galley
and separate w.c. The seats in the saloon are upholstered, the floor is carpeted
and there is a drop leaf table. The rear door opens to a cockpit with upholstered
seats and the forward doors open to a covered steering position. Forward of
this is the steam plant. A skylight covers the engine, and forward of this is
the boiler. A refillable gas tank and oil separator are also provided, these
are concealed beneath the floors, as are all the radio control servos. All pipework
has been pre-bent and all connections fitted. The boiler and gas tank are hydraulically
tested, and the complete unit steam tested before despatch. The floors each
side of the engine and boiler lead to a forward cockpit with slatted seats and
a drop leaf table. The saloon has a detachable coach roof, allowing access to
the galley, w.c. and saloon. At 1/12th scale, there is plenty of scope for the
miniaturist to add their own personal touch. The kit comprises a fibreglass
hull and all ply and other woods necessary to complete the model. There are
over one hundred brass fittings, (no white metal is used). These include boathooks,
door plates, stanchions, tread plates, hand rails, oil lamps and taps. A Windermere
kettle, (non working), is also provided. The saloon and cockpit button back
upholstery is ready moulded, as are the w.c. and basin. All running gear is
brass or stainless steel, bearings fitted and ready to install. Full size drawings
and an instruction book with detail drawings and colour illustrations are also
provided. The kit is available without the steam plant for those who wish to
install other units.
