Looking for parts for Freight Ships
10/29/9 at 07:08:54
 
I am looking for some parts for freighter, Navy or otherwise. Specifically I am looking for a 1/96 scale single free fall lifeboat, and other parts for a modern freighter. I see that Deans Marines has full kits, but I dont think they sell them separate. I have tried to contact them, but didnt get a reply.

If anyone has any leads about parts, please let me know.
Thanks
Eric

Thanks for the links. They will be helpful, but still wondering where to get the modern slide boat that is on the ships today. Im still looking. If I get a lead on something, I will post it.

Thanks again
Eric

Hi Eric,

Is this what you are looking for? I took some pictures in Savanna Ga. of container ships and have a few more shots if you need them.

Yes. Thats it. I know there are lots of other parts to get as well. Does anyone have a connection with Deans Marine that can see a cost for the fittings for the Trein Maerk? That might be something to help me get building.

Thanks
Eric

Eric:

I got a couple of the lifeboats from Deans marine a couple of years ago.  I'll see if I can find them.  Send me an email.
