50" Carol Moran Tug (#1272)

Carol Moran Tug Kit #1272

We are back with a jumbo tug boat. In-house, we've been referring to this boat as the Carol Moran XXXL. Taking a look at the pictures and comparing it to the 18" Carol Moran will really drive the point home. Simply put, this is the biggest tug boat we have ever made.

This 50" model features balsa planking over laser-cut poplar plywood frames. The cabin and pilot house are constructed from Die cut and laser-cut poplar plywood with expanded PVC sheeting. The kit includes all of the detail pieces such as turned brass stanchions, cast metal parts, several large urethane castings, vacuum-formed parts, decals, and laser-cut detail pieces. A 54-page instruction booklet and 108 corresponding figure drawings walk you step-by-step through construction. And as you would expect from a boat this size, it is a fantastic running model. If you've been thinking about living large, then you have to check out the new Carol Moran.
