[@NaturallyRC]

Incredible. Thanks for sharing. Your tug masterpiece is at a whole new level compared to my own "scratch" tug. But it's nice to see that we have a copper plumbing pipe exhaust stack in common. 😁✔

Geez, Ive got pics I took from the Sea Imp II!! I think I took these around '95 or '96!! Been a long time since I did Fraser River photography...

Hello thats an awesome build, i built a model of the seaspan king, just wondering where do you get all your deck fittings and whinch from?

[@SylvainsShipyard]

Alberto Flores thanks! Most fittings are hand made and some are resin castings. A few are from Cornwall Model Boats in the UK. The winch was also scratch built. Have a look here for the winch build. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a2SUfYubbbWmi7c

I have watched this video more than 50 times. Please tell me where I can buy it.........

[@SylvainsShipyard]

You can't! Its scratch built!

[@1978k5]

Do you know where to buy the kit?

[@SylvainsShipyard]

It’s not a kit, it’s scratch build.

[@1978k5]

I see you have the hull in the video, and I talk to a guy named Gary King but not getting a straight answer.

[@SylvainsShipyard]

@@1978k5 Gary made the fibreglass hull for my build. That’s the only thing I bought from him for this build. This was the first time I bought a fibreglass hull since I usually build my own. If you are looking for a kit, I believe Gary offers a Sea Imp X kit which includes the same hull as mine plus a wooden house that you have to assemble yourself.
