Title: British Power Boat Co. 71' 6" MTB - open cockpit details
Post by: Chris Preston on April 03, 2017, 07:21:34 pm
'Morning All,

I'm currently building a Deans Marine 24th scale British Power Boat Co. 71' 6" MTB (MTB 459) with some major detail improvements to the deck camber and shape, and the bridge/wheelhouse structure - mainly correcting the shape. I'm at the point where I need some details for the open cockpit portion of the main cabin but haven't been able to locate anything.

Would anyone on this board know of a source for photos of the cockpit showing all the controls - throttles, engine telegraphs, torpedo controls, and switchboards/circuit panels, that would be visible in an open cockpit?

Many Thanks in advance.

This is the only pic I could find but it's probably very much like what you're after.  It's a 73ft Vosper (MTB 383)
