That's much larger than any of the Coronado ferry boats but it sure looks good in the water!

Not too bad considering it was done only from photos and few dimensions. It's great to see the vehicles are the right scale to the ship, I wondered how it would look. One day I'll get around to a RW version. Thanks for sharing the pics.


Cheers Bazza

Ya Herb I know, It was just the closes body of water that was handy for me to test her.;)

The scale seems to be good. It will hold 2 lanes of vehicles. Not being a person of the sea, I was curious as to how they load and unload this type. The only ferry's I'm familiar with load at one end and unload from the other.
