UGEARS RESEARCH VESSEL
The UGears Research Vessel is a set that will make you forget about everything else and set sail towards exciting nautical adventures. Following the success of the UGears Tugboat that employed a similar moving mechanism, the Research Vessel is a highly-detailed and fully-functional copy of the modern-day ice breakers and survey boats. Additionally, just like a Tugboat, the gears of the Research Vessel are arranged in a way to produce the sound that is similar to the sound of a diesel engine.
The set includes a bathyscape a motorboat and a lifeboat, all of which are easily and safely accommodated on the Research Vessel.
HOW UGEARS RESEARCH VESSEL WORKS
The Research Vessel set features many exciting elements that will make your experience more genuine. The drop ramp, the cargo area with an opening hatch and a swing jib crane, and a special extension platform for the bathyscape are some of the elements that make this model so interactive and fun.
The engine room’s exterior design provides easy access to the inner work of the mechanisms that make the Research Vessel move. This model features several modes that are controlled by a lever: forward, turn, and automatic maneuvering.
