MV Maersk Anglia by Deans Marine

The ship was constructed in Japan in 1977 by the Iskikanigima Harima shipyard and named the “Saint Remy”. She had a LOA of 122.95m beam of 18.5m and a draught of 4.8m. Her displacement is 6994.65 tons and she has a capacity to carry 86 forty foot trailers. The main engines are two single acting, air cooled, turbo charged non reversing diesels, each with an output of 3,600 b.h.p.. The two four bladed, variable pitch propellers provide a service speed of 14 knots.

One of the most spectacular vessels to be added to the Deans Marine merchant fleet with probably the most complicated and detailed glass fiber molding to come from their workshops. The hull is molded up to the bridge deck level and includes all port and rubbing strip detail. The bulwarks are part of this molding. The bridge structure is of computer generated 1mm printed plastic. All fittings, including the four massive multi purpose hydraulic winches that are provided in the kit along with a full set of running gear. These, together with a comprehensive instruction book and a FULL SIZE PLAN assist in the assembly of this impressive model.
