*by E***O on Reviewed in the United States on December 20, 2019*

It came with chips paint all around the hull, the rudder fell off. Very  disappointed.  Not worth  returning because the boats were for the crew who now work on this very same tug that is now renamed TUG RUBY M.  so we dont mind some dings n chips paint.
