I.D. please

Good evening gentlemen, a student bought a boat in today asking if I could help him get it going. It's plank on frame and I think Mahogany and about 2' long, inside there seems to be a transformer along with other bits of home made stuff that until I inspect further I've no idea what they do . He'd be really chuffed if someone could at least give him some idea of what it is and more so I'm sure if he can get it going, I'm planning on telling him to register here and ask advice from you good folks when he embarks on it's restoration. Cheers guys, Grub.

Hard one next time please!


She is the Zwarte Zee, deep sea tug.
Made by Billings and can still be purchased today
