Springer Ramborator, wooden building kit, from Aero-Naut

Ref Aero-Naut 304800

Wooden construction kit.

Springer pushers are used on American rivers where they are used to maneuver other ships or transport loads. Their design is very simple and they can be built quickly. These boats can also become very simple models to make, so springer pusher competitions are developing in England and the USA. The rules are simple and only frame the shape of the hull, the propulsion and the rudder to ensure balanced competitions. The same enthusiasm arrived in Germany a few years ago.

These boats are a good choice to test one's skill, but they are also used to play waterball. The models are always equipped in a simple way, which our version respects. The boat can be ready to sail in a few hours.

The kit of the "Ramborator" contains a set of accessories to make a semi-model with a friendly appearance.
