This lot comprises a large scale radio controlled model tugboat, accompanied by two radio transmitters, a battery, and a charger. The model depicts a traditional single-funnel tugboat with a hull finished in black and red, featuring a white rubbing strake. The superstructure is finished in yellow with grey decks. The hull appears to be constructed of moulded plastic or GRP, while the superstructure and deck components appear to be made of wood and plastic. The boat is equipped with a three-bladed propeller and a single rudder. Deck features include a black funnel with a yellow band, two red-interior cowl vents, a life ring, and a green deck winch at the bow.
Included is an Axion RC AX-4 CT 4-channel 2.4GHz digital proportional radio control transmitter, bearing a printed mark to the front panel reading Axion RC AX-4 CT. Also present is a Joysway J4C12 4-channel 2.4GHz transmitter, marked Joysway and J4C12 4CH DIGITAL PROPORTIONAL RADIO CONTROL SYSTEM. The power system includes an Overlander Sport 11.1V 3S 2500mAh LiPo battery pack, bearing a printed label reading Overlander Sport, and a black wall-plug charger with a standard UK 3-pin plug. This lot comprises the boat and accessories described; the furniture and background items shown in the images are not included.
Condition report:
The hull shows significant paint chips, scuffs, and abrasions, particularly along the white rubbing strake and the black upper hull section (photo 5). The yellow paint on the superstructure appears uneven and shows an accumulation of dust (photo 4 and photo 7). Several small deck fittings appear loose or may be missing. The Joysway transmitter is missing the metal thumb grip head from its single joystick (photo 3). The internal electronics, battery pack, and battery charger are included but remain untested for functionality.
