From the Deansmarine Team:

Please find enclosed three pics of my Liberty Ship .. Stephen Hopkins
I named her after the original which was sunk in the S Atlantic in 1942, but caused
so much damage to her attacker, the German raider  Stier..that it blew up and sank too.
The model is powered by a Deans Kestrel motor and belt drive.
It carries two 6 volt batteries..one for propulsion and the other to operate the smoke generator, lights.horn, 3 inch gun forward and 4 inch gun aft.
A five blade prop has been fitted and the ship is suprisingly manoeverable.
Deck cargo has been added including tanks , pipes and a railway locomotive
of the type built in the USA and shipped to Britain.
The model has been very successful in Potteries Navy Day competitions in
the past couple of years.

Regards..Trevor D Birch
