My other money-spenders
« on: May 19, 2018, 05:50:03 am »

Two of my other hobbies; diecast motorcycles, of which I have around 450, in 1:24, 1:18 and 1:12 scale, and my 1969 Coronet 21 Explorer II, which I've been restoring in phases over the past three years.  I have managed to obtain line drawing for the Coronet hull, so hope to build a model of it at 1:10 scale, giving me a 64cm hull length.

I like the coronet 21, GRP hull aren't they?


What engine is in her? I know that some had a Volvo Penta.

My models are not nice, clean and ship-shape. They be mucky, grubby, rusty and smelly.

Thanks eddiesolo. Yeah she's fibreglass. Originally had a 100hp volvo penta petrol engine but 1989 saw her repowered and she now has a 130hp diesel volvo penta. Good for 28 knots and only burns 18 litres an hour cruising at 20 knots.

That's all right, Mr Ryan. My Morse is so rusty, I could be sending him dimensions on Playmate of the Month.
