CHEROKEE NAVAJO Class tugboat
 

The Cherokee class of fleet tugboats, originally known as the Navajo class, were built for the United States Navy prior to the start of World War II. They represented a radical departure from previous ocean-going tug designs, and were far more capable of extended open ocean travel than their predecessors. Cherokee class tugboats were also the first large surface vessels in the United States Navy to be equipped with Diesel-electric drive.

This primarily wood Cherokee Navajo class tugboat model was commissioned in 2012 by a mariner who served on the USS Sioux.

We build this Cherokee tug model the following size: 24.5" long (1/100 scale). Please contact us for price and lead time.

"Frank: We received the Sioux model on 12-24-12....good job....we are well pleased with your work! We have not yet received the display case, and wonder when that will be shipped? Again...good job...much thanks... Bob Breci"
