Bob Zoell's Tugboat Anteo Repost







Here are some images of Bob Zoell's scratchbuilt tugboat Anteo.

The Anteo is a 30s Italian Harbor tug 90' in length. The model is
double-planked, 34" long and its single screw is powered by a v-4
Hemmings marine power plant run on Butane. It is fitted with a 22
channel Marine RC That controls all the lights as well as water pump
from reserve tank, whistle, spot-light, Rudder, fuel, blow-down and
steam exhaust oil-collecting tank which can be seen in photo looking
down on engine. With the boiler full and the reserve water tank one could
run the Anteo for 45 min. Bob made one of the four water hatches on deck,
workable so when in port he could refill the reservoir to extend the running
time.
