Range Safety Craft~The primary task of these craft is firing range surveillance and clearance in coastal areas around the United Kingdom. Twelve craft in total were built from 1978 to 1984. Standard engines were Rolls Royce C8M-410, replaced by Volvo Penta TAMDI22D during 1995 giving a top speed of 21 knots.The Model: Building the model does not require great skills as many parts are ready-made thus ensuring that the boat is completed in a relatively short time. While the plan is of the 15m Range Safety Craft the model lends itself to adaptation into other boats such as pilot launches, police launches etc. With twin propellers, performance on the water is realistic and true to scale. Recommended for model makers with a little experience.

Model specifications:Twin Screw Semi Scale: 1:16 Length o/a: 950mm (37-1/4") Displacement: approx. 9 lbs (4 kilos)

10 Hatch Coaster~Built in 1968-73 in the German Democratic Republic for service in the North Sea and Baltic seaports, these coasters were designed as multi-purpose carriers, handling diverse cargoes such as wood, paper, grain, containers etc. Over 30 vessels were originally built for Lars Rej Johansen of Oslo, however they have since changed hands and names. A feature is the bulbous bow which reduces hydrodynamic drag resulting in considerable fuel savings. Our model depicts a typical motor coaster of the era.
