    Victor class mouldings?

    Hope I'm not breaching forum rules here, but if any one is interested in Victor class hull/deck/sail sets for the Victor class, check this link out.

    I will say that I have no connection whatsoever with Orion Mouldings/Wearboats, just contemplating buying a set of moulds.

              Kehrer do a nice Victor class hull. You can be sure it'll be good quality too-

                  The hull I got from

                  The hull I got from this guy was double the thickness that it needed to be , the resin had not cured by the time I received it ( 24hrs in the post ) and wasn't fully cured until 2-3 days after it got here.

                  The Victor hull has been looked at before when he had photos on Ebay and the hull doesn't look to be the right shape and no details looked to be on the hull at all.

                  Myles and Paul have copies of the Emails I had at the time and have contacted the UK Vendors mentioned previously to confirm my original posting.

                      always thought that looked a nice boat, but is it very accurate?

                          Don't know (Russian boats aren't really my bag), it's probably not 100%. The hulls are good quality though- nicely moulded in epoxy glass.

                              My set of mouldings arrived

                              My set of mouldings arrived today...man, it's a big boat. They are bloody good mouldings, pardon my French. No lumps and bumps, no high spots, no low spots and no flaws. OK, there's no scribed deck detail, but for the money I'm not arguing.
                              I'm having a radio compartment custom made for it by Orion, all part of the service.

                              I will say again, I have no links with Orion Mouldings at all, just a well satisfied customer of his.
