!
Hello, I would like to introduce myself. I am Ben from Belgium and after a long search for my first boat. I caught my eye on this console boat. I knew little about the brand and type. But I was in love with the old lines of the boat. And I was able to buy it for a nice price. After some research on the internet. I think the base is probably a coronet playmate. That's how I ended up on your forum. I now also know that the boat is unfortunately no longer original. But I really like it on the water. And now that I know it is from + - 1969. May he be seen among all the modern boats :) let me know what you think.

Looks like it. Can you see a serial number just above the transmission on the inside of the transom.

If you find it add it in our registry. You can then also find it in the production books, only 120 playmates was produced. The number you have is not the serial number it shall be 0xx.329 if it is a 1969 or 0xx.320 if it is a 1970 model. 0xx being serial number 001-060 per yer in total 120 made those two years.

OK, thank you very much for the info. I never knew the boats were so rare. And only 120 pieces were made. Good to know. It was for sale on a second hand site and there was little interest. Many people have not known that this is such a rare boat, better for me that kept the price low :) Next time I am at my boat I wil search for the number.

Do you have an idea of the average price for such a boat? The boat is in good condition but no longer original. It has a nissan patrol diesel engine with a Volvo penta 280. Then I know if I have made a good buy :)

~7-30kEUR. Big span yes, but very few is fully original and in mint condition. You can see two for sale on this site.

OK thanks, yours looks pretty original. Very beautiful. I miss the wooden frame against the side and the logos. But I saw the logos for sale on your site. Can I find the wooden frame somewhere or should I have it made by a carpenter?

The club don’t have them. A carpenter can do them but need a drawing or originals to copy from. I know there are people doing them. You can ask here or on the club Facebook page.

You might be able to get these from one of the club members. Try contacting Sandvigcoronet Seafarer, he has a lot of old Coronet Parts and profiles in his storage, you might just be lucky....

Had a little break with the boat. With the corona conditions I lacked motivation :) . But now I'm looking forward to it again after a good holiday :). i just got my z drive back
this has had a check and a major service. And my turbo has also been upgraded and overhauled.

I also found a serial number on the boat. Anyone know if this is a coronet number? It was located at the side underneath the walk around dek. 2112 D 11

This is the deck number, unfortunate we have not found any connection to the serial number in the archives.
