M/S Finnmarken
HURTIGRUTEN-SHIP 1:60 SCALE
After the war, the Hurtigruten fleet had to be rebuilt and new ships were
needed. In 1956 the M/S Finnmarken was put into service on the Norwegian coast.
She was the first ship of the "new line" of Hurtigruten with a superstructure at
the stern (stern loader).
The M/S Finnmarken appeared as a prototype of a
series of Hurtigruten ships which were put into service at the end of the 1950s
and in the first half of the 60s. Furthermore, the M/S Ragnvald Jarl was built
according to the same drawings as Finnmarken. They were sister ships, although
they sailed for different shipping companies. Since 1993 the M/S Finnmarken is
decommissioned and part of the Hurtigruten Museum in Stokmarknes.
For the
development of the kit of the M/S Finnmarken original drawings of the Hamburg
shipyard Blohm & Voss could be used, from which it was built and delivered in
1956. The model is reproduced correctly in scale 1:60. It has a wonderfully
beautiful hull and comes with full decor! The superstructures can be opened to
see the furnishings of the salons. In addition, the model can be illuminated
with LEDs both internally and externally. The kit is designed for use with
propulsion and remote control on the water, but also inspires as a stand model.
A list of the required accessories for the development as RC model can be found
in the "Documents" tab.
The decor contains the lettering of the sister ships M/S Finnmarken, M/S
Ragnvald Jarl and M/S Sjøkurs with the NRK logos "Summer Boat".
The kit
includes an illustrated building instruction with text passages and parts list
in English from modell-tec. This can be downloaded in the "Documents" tab. In
addition, we enclose the German translation of the texts and parts list together
with some supplementary information.
