Sup gang,
I had this model here in my basement for the last 10 years.
Owned it for almost my entire life but I never knew what exactly it is. I was asuming it was something like a boy layer, or an exploratory vessel. Turns it's like a "fishing guard vessel" for whatever that means. Is there a way to find out more about these? I'd like to know if this was like a class of ships and if any of them did something interesting if there was more of them.
Funnily enough I found a somewhat similar model of the same scale in a French forum but nobody's selling blueprints or kits for this to my knowledge.
if you care, backstory-> It's been built by a great uncle of mine and he died when I was like 5 so I didn't really know him. But he gave it to me in his testament and I had some (dad supervised) fun with it through out my childhood. It's powered by a fist sized electric motor and a motorcycle battery It's gone through a few movings and fallen into a state of moderate superficial disrepair. And I always wanted to fix it up again (I'm into model building as well, a bit) but I have other things on my plate and it would probably feel wrong to replace the 90's electronics (everything moves/lights up) to any degree. I never wanted to part with it, but I think the time has come and I think I'm giving it away to sb more qualified like a boomer collector.
