    Century Coronado - Cardel conversion?

    Re: Century Coronado - Cardel conversion? Bill, First off...The Coronado and the Cardel are the exact same hull. Secondly...The windshield is also essentially the same on Coronado's and Cardel's. In fact, the windshields on the "Heritage Series" (Coronado, Cardel, Arabian, Sabre & Resorter)...

    Century Coronado - Cardel conversion?

    Re: Century Coronado - Cardel conversion? I agree with Tahorover...Except the factory top was Vinyl. FYI...If you want to have the bimini look factory, just make sure they bend, cut and place the metal poles at the "right height" and location, so it will look original....The top should lay...

    Looking at a 1992 Coronado Cardel

    Re: Looking at a 1992 Coronado Cardel I own a 1986 Century Cardel 454 V-Drive and I am very familiar with Century Boats. The I/O models are never going to be desirable to the type of people who collect these classic Century boats. People who want a classic Century will want the Direct-Drive...

    Century Coronado - Cardel conversion?

    Re: Century Coronado - Cardel conversion? I own a Cardel and I am very familiar with Century Boats, so here is my two cents... The Coronado and the Cardel are the exact same hull; a Cardel is basically a V-Drive Coronado. That said, theoritically, you could, convert a Direct-Drive Coronado...
