kees de mol Posted April 24, 2016 #1 Posted April 24, 2016 Hello, This week I went to a modelshow with a good friend of mine and before we went to Germany we had some coffee in his house. He told me he had a present for me and came up with this beautifull model kit from Model Shipways. It is a motortrawler from Hull (GB) and the kit is released in 1954. All the parts are there. A hand made wooden hull, some other wooden parts, a full set of drawings and a box of white metal fittings in their original paper bags. I am very happy with it and I hope to build it in the future. But that will take some time tough. Kind regards, Kees dgbot, Canute, mtaylor and 3 others 6 Current build: Dutch beamtrawler KW88, Pelikaan 1/75 Completed build: Dutch sidetrawler KW49, Antje 1/75 Completed build: Scottisch 10m trawler 1/25 Want to see some real Kitsch... With a capital K?!! Visit my 'museum' here at MSW My blog:

mitbok Posted May 2, 2016 #3 Posted May 2, 2016 Great kit, I got two of them, one with most of parts lost. Too bad the real Hildina sunk (within a year of her commission I think),luckily without any casualties. There were so many trawlers built that looked similar, you could probably build any from this kit. How about a peaceful Soviet trawler like this one: Canute, mtaylor and GuntherMT 3
