Small&Wonderful
I've bought this set a week ago, from Bricklink, because it's old just one year less than me.
OK, it's very small, but all the details are right there, were they have to be and there are many of them. It has huge playabillity and construction is much better than the nowadays boats', fresh, nice and qualitate Danish. So, if your child loves boats, buy him/her this one (if you can), because, that's the best boat starter set.9 out of 9 people thought this review was helpful.
Golden Oldie!
This was one of the earliest set I had. Like someone mentioned above, I remember playing with this in the bath!!
It was a great little set, not too complicated just the right size.
I can across the hull sections recently and I think the weighted keel is about somewhere, I must rebuild it for display.
As for value for money, I have no idea what my parents paid for it and doubt they would remember.

Typical Tug Boat…
This was one of my first sets that I received as a present and it is still going strong all these years later, admittedly it is in dry dock now and on my shelf on display.
It’s a small set but full of fun! The wheelhouse window is very typical of a tug boat as is the location of the all important towing line with the hook neatly attached to the rear rail. I have never wanted to modify this set as I think it is perfect the way it is.
I just wish more sets were built along this line, there would have been so much scope for other sets using this interconnecting hull sections.5 out of 5 people thought this review was helpful.
A Great Tug Boat
Lego has only made one tug boat, and this is all they need. This tug is absolutely perfect in every way. The cabin area is very cool and makes this set fun to play with. The boat is a little small which makes it good enough to be a tug boat. If Lego decides to make another tug, they should look at this set before making it.

Fun Boat
This was one of my first sets as a kid. The boat went through many different transformations over the years. When I brought it back to its original set it brought back so many memories. It came with a weight that allowed it to float in the bathtub. The tow hook and rope were great for saving other ships in distress or hauling a load. The minifig is also simple yet professional looking.
It's a very simple built with fairly simple pieces. In the end, it's an amazing little boat that provides hours of fun. I would highly recommend it for any collectors harbor.
Thanks
