Shopteli is proud to present the handmade Seguin Tugboat model, a true masterpiece of craftsmanship.

This model is handcrafted from strips of mahogany and teak, all built plank on frame. The attention to detail is truly remarkable, especially on the windows and deck area. Each tiny piece of wood is carefully glued together, a process that requires a tremendous amount of time. The masts, smoke stack, and lower portion of the hull are painted in the original colors, and a shiny finish enhances the model's beauty. Our craftsmen have dedicated over a hundred hours to create this exquisite piece.

The Seguin Tugboat has a rich history. Launched in Maine in 1884, it was named after Seguin Island at the mouth of the Kennebec River. At one point, it was the oldest operating steam-powered tugboat in the nation. For its first 20 years, it towed wooden sailing vessels up and down the Kennebec River and cargo barges along the Atlantic coast, from Maine to Virginia. In the early 1900s, it served as a New York harbor tug, before returning to active service in Maine until its retirement in 1967. Unfortunately, during restoration by the Maine Maritime Museum, the hull was found to be severely rotted, leading to the regretful decision to scrap her.

This model is a perfect piece for those interested in decorative boats, wooden ships, nautical decorations, and model ships.
