Model boat kit

Jenny Lee Harbor Tug

Kit by Dumas

Jenny Lee is loosely based on harbour tugs that worked in the southern United States from the early 1900s to the 1940s.

The 1:32 kit is meant as an introduction to plank on frame building, with balsa planking over poplar plywood frames, a 47 page manual and an optional radio control fit. The finished model is 24 in long.
