Krick Borkum kit without steam machine

The Krick Borkum model kit is a highly detailed replica of a classic steam barge in 1:12 scale. Traditionally, the steam harbour barge was used to tow ships in harbours, manoeuvre cargo and for smaller transports. The Borkum model captures the rugged character of these boats and gives modelers the opportunity to build a functional and visually appealing model with the option of a steam engine or electric motor of their choice. The kit contains all important mechanical parts - propeller, shaft, rudder, bearings and necessary connecting components. For easy orientation during construction, a 1:1 scale plan and a manual with clear instructions in several languages, including Czech, are included. The model is suitable for more advanced modelers who have some experience with building ships, either steam or electric.
