All I spoke with Bob yesterday. He is looking to sell his DKM Tirpitz, DKM Graf Zeppelin, and the USS Rochester. And no.. He is not getting out of the hobby. But he is interested in down-sizing his ships. He already has a Pocket-battleship, and he is also in the process of obtaining a Nurnburg class light cruiser. I think he also might have a destroyer under construction as well. I can't remember what he was asking for the Rochester. But it is a wooden hull, with most of the superstructure finished. I think the motors are installed as well. The DKM Tirpitz is set up for big-gun. He has the main turrets, and a pair of 5-shot (reloading) triple torps. The boat comes with a radio, and is combat-ready (if I remember correctly). He is asking 1500.00 (plus shipping). The DKM Graf Zeppelin is also set up for big-gun. She is not quite combat-ready. But she has twin cannons in the bow and stern, and 16 bb cannons (no barrels). Most of the CO2 stuff is already installed. I think he said that the motors were installed as well. I think he is looking for around 800.00 (plus shipping). Photos are posted on the Empire State Battle Group yahoo site. You can reach Bob at.. rallen98@rochester.rr.com He mentioned that he may be willing to trade for something smallish. Thanks. Mikey
