Historically significant custom made tugboat models such as this USS Hoga YT-146, a humble yard tug that gave a gallant effort saving lifes and extinguishing fires on December 7, 1941. Hoga was only six months in service when Pearl Harbor was attacked. She managed to get underway within ten minutes of the first hit on Pearl Harbor, the United States entry into WWII. Saving anything and anyone they could along Battleship Row. All men aboard bravely battled the fires of war during that fateful time for 48 hours straight. Shown here proudly in her Pearl Harbor configuration, before the battle began, in 1/50th scale. Solid Red Oak custom cradle mount finished in fine natural oils with brass engraved nameplate.
