The first steps in building the Antje (1)

Here I will report the building of the Dutch sidetrawler KW49 build in 1959 en refurbished in 1969. I will build here like she was after refurbish when they changed here in to a beamtrawler. My grandfather was a skipper on here for some years and my uncle who went with him a few time liked to have a model of the ship and I promissed to build one for him.
The scale of the model is 1/75 and the lenght is app. 60cm. She will be build as a static model.
