Welcome to the Grays Thurrock Model Boat Club SPRINGER TUG Page

There seems to be a real interest in these little pusher type American tugs and it looks like we may have around 20 different models in the club .  If you are interested in building a Springer then here are the basic rules that we will be adopting.

If you are wanting some help and tips on how to build or what to put on your Springer by way of fittings, go take a look at towboatjoe.com for some ideas.l - 
our club meet's on Sundays in Belhus Country Park at the main public lake, usually from 9am till 2pm although soon after midday some have retired to the park Cafe for tea and cakes.

   During the Summer months several competitions are organized to test the competence of those who like a bit of competition details of which appear on the Events Page.
