D/S Skibladner
A side-wheel steamer on a scale of 1:60
The D/S Skibladner is the oldest steamship in regular service. She was
built in 1856 and still regularly sails her ferry route on Lake Mjøsa in Norway.
The Skibladner is also Norway's only paddlewheel-driven ship. It is still in
operation today and has been in regular service since its maiden voyage on 2
August 1856. Its route calls at towns on both shores of Lake Mjøsa and runs from
Eidsvold to Lillehammer. Her home port is Gjøvik.
The ship is 50.1 m
long. The hull has exceptionally slender lines with a width of only 5.06 m + the
paddle wheels on each side. This gives a top speed of 14 knots. The propulsion
system has 606 hp. The ship was built in a collaboration between Motala Shipyard
and Aker Mek. The Skiblander is maintained by Oplandske Dampskipselskap, which
still owns and operates the ship.
The kit of laser-cut wooden parts comes
with fittings kit and lighting. For the extension as a remote controlled driving
model, a corresponding extension kit with motor and worm gear, servo for the
rudder linkage and small parts is available as an accessory.
The typical
narrow hull construction of these paddle steamers naturally also presents some
difficulties when building as a model and especially as an RC model. The hull
has only a very low displacement and is correspondingly "tippy" due to its
proportions. Therefore, we recommend this model for experienced model builders
who have already gained experience with true-to-the-original RC model
constructions.

MODELL TEC
Die Marke für Skandinavische Schiffmodell-Klassiker
Die neuen Schiffsmodellkonstruktionen der norwegischen Firma modell-tec füllen
eine Lücke im bisherigen Sortiment an Schiffsmodellen. Interessante norwegische
Schiffskonstruktionen, wie sie sicherlich schon viele bei einem Urlaub
kennenlernen durften und die zum Träumen einladen.
Die Bausätze werden ganz aus Holz in Lasertechnologie gefertigt und sind schön
detailliert aufgebaut. Für Skandinavienfreunde, die den Bau eines Spantenrumpfes
mit Beplankung nicht scheuen, eine echte Neuerung.
