The "Sinekura 2" is a  typical multi-purpose coastal transport vessel with high versatility even under difficult conditions. She is operated by Onego Shipping in Russia. The fact that she is equipped with a 25 ton crane makes her somewhat unique. She was built 1988 in Japan.

Technical details of the original
    length  50 m
    beam    12 m
    tonnage 724 tons

The model is designed in 1:200 scale. It can be built as a model for static display or as a working RC boat. It is set up to enable radio control functions (RC), with single shaft and rudder as well as the bow thruster fully functional. As the model is rather small, the model can only be used in  quiet water conditions. Additionally, the radar and lights can be set up to work, additional function such as the crane can be added by a skilled modeller, too. However, this model is not set up to be ready to run, it requires refinement and is only suitable for skilled model builders.
