Coronet Boat 1960s
Looking for information or parts for Coronet Explorer 22 ft. motor boat I'm restoring, an early grp cruiser made around 1963. Especially looking for original badges, mast, navigation lights & deck fittings if anyone can help? Its a VERY well constructed boat with a hull of 10mm grp over 15mm marine ply on agba mahogany frames. Know that a similar boat with twin 100hp OMC outboards, was taken across the atlantic in late 1950s from Copehagen/Denmark to New York/USA over 4,000nm for a publicity stunt, it took 11 days. Still holds the record for any boat crossing the atlantic by outboard power. Have some original sales brochures but who be great to find publicity photos, handbook or boat tests & reveiews from 1960s ? thanks
