I received this picture of the Robbe Seawolf from Bill Rose. He write: I have just completed the new Seawolf by Robbe. I haven't ballast tested it yet, but I think you should add it to your list as it is another fine Robbe product.

The only pictures of this boat is from Robbe's marketing material in which they show the boat painted bright orange. If Robbe painted them like this one I'm sure they would sell more of them. It sure looks good! |  |
I have built the U-47 and the Seawolf is much simpler and easy to build. The only problem I had was getting a clean joint between the main hull sections. This is nearly impossible and Robbe should design the boat with the seams on the top and bottom where flaws can be hidden. Other than that, it is a really neat kit at a very reasonable price.

I also think it might behoove Robbe and the modeler to mold the nose cone in one piece. Less production time and less fiddling around with matching and filling seams. Less material would be required as well. One of the neat things about this kit is that the forward linkage is installed from the inside. Why not take advantage of it? Bill Rose |  |
