Harry Abbott's done it again!

Here's a Hot News announcement from Battlefleet Models of an exciting, unique, and new addition to his full resin, 1/700 scale, Waterline Series.
North Seas Trawler "Livia"
KIT # BFM721 & BFM721A
Scale-1/700, full resin

Harry states:

"This little ship would be great in a harbor scene or on the ocean passing by a convoy, in a Norwegian Fjord, Anchorage, AK., or wherever you might see a fishing trawler."

"We have also represented her as a armed trawler BFM-721A. A 3”/50 on the bow and a 20mm atop the pilothouse. You might find her in coastal waters protecting merchant ships or on the open sea. The diorama possibilities are endless."

More details will be added as received to the MSW Newsdesk!

Looking forward for this one Not only for civil scenes (harbour or not) but also the military version of it - lot's of possibilities! I have just finished reading "PQ-17 - Convoy to Hell" to get in the mood for a future project and now... pop! Here's an armed trawler!!! You're a mind reader, Harry Rui

Thank you, Gentlemen. This little beauty came together after a conversation with C. Bruer, who was working on one for a diorama(you can see his version on the BFM site). I like this one so much, I may even build one myself. In case you are interested the prices are $20 and $25.
