Suitable for East Africa Colonial Campaigns or any other scenario steam punk Victorian etc. You are buying a basic “garage” home kit from hand cast and printed resin parts. The boat resembles the German Steam Boat KINGANI or HMS FIFI as used on Lake Tanganyika in the First World War East Africa. HMS Fifi was an armed screw steamer, captured from the Germans by Royal Navy units during the Battle for Lake Tanganyika, and used to support Anglo-Belgian operations on the lake and its surrounding areas. She had previously been operated by the Germans under the name KINGANI named after the river. Fifi, now rearmed with a 12 pounder to the front and the original German 6 pounder to the aft, along with the Mimi, a Thorneycroft River Motor Launch, is famous for their action on the lake when they engaged the German gunboat SMS Hedwig von Wissmann 9 February 1916, severely damaging her.
