ANTONIA IS ENTIRELY SCRATCH BUILT USING THE PLANS FOR THE SUSSANA II BY AEROPICOLA.
I HAVE MADE THE BOAT 4 INCHES LONGER THAN SHOWN ON THE PLAN BY PUTTING IN AN EXTRA BULKHEAD.
THE HULL CONSTRUCTION IS PLANK ON FRAME SEALED WITH FIBREGLASS RESIN.
LOTS OF CLUTTER ON THE DECK AND SOME WEATHERING MAKE IT LOOK LIKE THE REAL THING.

THIS IS MADE USING THE MOULDINGS FOR THE SEA TROJAN BY METCLFE MOULDINGS. SHE IS 45 INCHES LONG AND WEIGHS A LOT.
SHE IS DRIVEN BY A PITTMAN 6 TO I GEARED MOTOR AND A 5 BLADED 4 1/2 INCH DIAMETER PROP. YES FIVE BLADED FOUR AND A HALF INCH. THE PROP WAS MADE FOR ME BY PROP SHOP.
LOTS OF WORKING FEATURES, FIRE MONITORS, FOGHORN LIGHTS AND A BILGE PUMP.
A POWERFUL BOAT THAT REGULARLY PULLS THE CLUB DINGHY AROUND OUR LAKE. SHE IS UNSTOPPABLE.

LILLIAN IS FROM THE KIT BY LESRO. SHE IS ONLY JUST OVER A FOOT LONG BUT SURPRISINGLY STABLE EVEN IN QUITE CHOPPY WATER.
SHE IS WEATHERED TO LOOK SOMEWHAT SCRUFFY.
SHE LOOKS LIKE A MINIATURE WHEN PLACED NEXT TO ANTONIA III
