Baby Alligator Warping Tug "Chapleau"
Future Project!
This is the original paddlewheel version of the "Baby Alligator" warping tug. No. 77 Chapleau built in 1907 by West & Peachey (Simcoe, Ontario).
This kit is part of a fund raising project to support the W.D. Stalker, the last remaining operational West & Peachey Alligator Warping Tug. A major portion of the sales go to support the operations of this very important vessel. For additional information (including videos and photos) on the West & Peachey Tugs, please visit the Ontario Visual Heritage Project at http://www.visualheritage.ca/norfolk/alligator.php.
