Picked this up on eBay because I like unusual boat kit.  Can't find anything about it on the web.  Checked every forum I know of and the Constructo website (Diset is a brand associated with Constructo).  Nada.

Does is have any copyright date on the box or instructions?  Maybe a very old (in modeling terms) model that had limited production.  

 

Per info at Model Expo - the company was founded in 1942.  That's why I think it may be an older model.

Probably 1970s vintage.

Could be.  No laser cut parts so produced before early '80s.  Other than that no info.  What I am looking for has anyone built this model?
