    Short answer HH is 'No'!
    That particular Exeter as modelled was -
    HMS Exeter (68) a York-class heavy cruiser launched in 1929. She fought at the River Plate in 1939, and was sunk during the Second Battle of the Java Sea on 1 March 1942.

    HMS Exeter was planned as a Type 61 frigate. She was ordered in 1956, but cancelled in 1957.

    The last HMS Exeter (D89) was a Type 42 destroyer, launched in 1979. She served in the Falklands War and the Gulf War, and was in service until she was decommissioned on 27 May 2009.

    Was the Exeter around in 1966? Maybe in Manchester, liverpool, London or Plymouth ship yard? The HMS Agencourt was with us in NATO exercises. As well as Dutch ship Drenthe. Also a sub called Sea Lion or Zee Lu ( that ship is in Fall River MA now) and can be visited. Anyone have any Agencourt models?

    here are a couple of pics of half my Naval fleet. HMS Exeter at 1:96 scale; HMS York 1:96 scale; Fairmile B 1:12 scale - all of them plank on frame, scratch built.

    My Crocket is still not done. Rails are next on main deck. I see some good ideas from your for a few things. Very well done mate. The antenna on right is leaning forward? Is that correct? I havenโ€™t added prop shafts yet either. I did 3D printing some parts on mine. Doors, gas cans and the Boston Whaler. Funny thing I met the whaler owner a few times. His wife was the first class Stewardess on American Airlines (Betty). It was on the Boston to San Juan PR run. At one time I flew diwn there Monday and home Friday for several years. I have to say the Dumas kit was good wood, instructions and plenty of material. I fiberglassed the hull after a lot of sanding. Your model is superb . Enjoyable build.
