Hi All,
And hi, Butelczynski. Sorry, but the numbers are for my inventory purposes only. There's just the one u-boat. I should mention that the model builds into a much stubbier version than the port-side elevation on the drawing would lead you to believe. Part 19 in the drawing is, I believe, a second rudder that is attached to the deck at the stern of the boat. Early U-boats had this double rudder arrangement. I think that the model represents a class U-9 boat, even though it doesn't say that on the drawing. The history of the U-9 is well known in submarine lore, and for those unfamiliar with it, search the net for a fascinating story. Score and fold, Thumb Dog |

Howdy Thumb Dog,
Would you please post a picture of the prop (screw) set up on the fan tail of your model? Also, Parts 15 & 16 have me baffled. BP |
