Lewek Kea (1:350, static model)

3D-printed model of the AHT Lewek Kea (and/or her sister ship "Lewek Kestrel") to be built as a static model. The printing model is derived from the design for the 1:200 RC version, hence it can only be printed in one material.

The model comes in two parts - the hull including details and the superstructure including details. The model is about 13 cm long. It can be painted using normal acrylic paints.

The "Lewek Kea" and her sister ship "Lewek Kestrel"  are typical examples for modern anchor handling tugs.  Operated by EMAS Offshore Limited, they are used for a variety of tasks, such as anchor handling, towage, safety  services, seismic  exploration and emergency services. Both vessels are therefore equipped with a variety of winches and emergency equipment.
