Nordic - Wooden kit

Ocean salvage tug in scale 1:72


The Nordic is probably the most powerful German deep-sea salvage tug. She is stationed at a sea position near Helgoland as part of the German emergency towing concept. The construction and commissioning of the Nordic is one of the consequences of the Pallas accident in 1998. Since then, the Schutzgemeinschaft Deutsche Nordsee (SDN) in particular, along with many other nature conservation associations, had been campaigning for a new emergency tug.

The keel-laying of the Nordic took place on 27 October 2009 at P+S Werften (formerly Peene Werft) in Wolgast. Sea trials were conducted between 7 and 12 October 2010. In this context, the Nordic achieved a tractive force of 207 tonnes (about 2030 kN) during the bollard pull tests in Flekkefjord, Norway. The ship was completed on 15 November 2010.
The Nordic then replaced the obsolete Oceanic at the turn of the year 2010 / 2011. The modern tugboat has a top speed of 20 knots and reaches all positions in the German Bight within two hours. The ship is equipped with a so-called citadel, a gas and explosion protection system, which allows the Nordic to operate even in highly flammable or hazardous environments.

Original drawings of the shipyard could be used for the development of the Nordic kit. The model is correctly reproduced in 1:72 scale. The kit is made of plywood with keel and frames and abachi planking strips. The superstructure is made with complete interior fittings from laser-cut wooden parts and details in resin 3D printing. In addition, the model can be illuminated with LEDs both internally and externally. The kit is basically designed as a floor model, but is quite suitable for use on the water with propulsion and remote control. A listing of the accessories required for conversion as a floatable RC model is in preparation.

The rich set of fittings is made of very detailed 3D impression parts. Likewise the cort nozzles.

The kit comes with detailed illustrated instructions with German text passages and parts list.
