Help for identify model

[oltretrepunti]

Hello everyone, I ask you to help identify the model in the picture, thanks

[Submarine Tom]

Try a larger photos with a few different angles.

Also, what is the story of the model?

Did you just find it on your door step?

I'm not being sarcastic, but it really does
seem quite similar to the USS Minno of Giligans island!

could be... ?

except for that big bow

Dirt-e,

I missed that. Good one little buddy.

Looks like an Atkins design to me.

[PAR]

It doesn't look like Atkins proportions at all to me. Neither Billy nor John would have put that much freeboard on her. If you look closely, you'll see a sheer line about half way up the topsides, which suggests this could be a modified model. The lower unbroken sheer has much more commonly seen proportions then the broken sheer above. I think the model is cartoonish in proportions currently, though it may once have been quite different, if the lower sheer is any indication. In fact, the lower sheer looks like it might have been a down east hull form at one time, possibly before the condo was installed above. No offense to Oltretrepunti, the model looks nicely done.

Yes, I think you're correct PAR (actually, I'm still waiting to see something incorrect written by you... ).
I recall seing this Innaminnie design by Billy Atkin once: http://www.boat-links.com/Atkinco/Cr...nnaminnie.html
and the memory of that drawing must have surfaced when I saw the model in the photo. But both the exterior styling and geometrical proportions are clearly very different.

It could be a Hutchins or an Glidden. but its Not.


I found it.


ITS a DITCHBURN!









Somethings were just made to be paddled.

[PAR]

Both the Innaminnie and the Ditchburn are flat tops and this model has a short trunk cabin on the foredeck. To my eye, the profile would look much better if the trunk cabin was taller and the freeboard equally reduced as a result.

Thanks Daiquiri, but I'm flawed, just as my other half or of course Paul B, who seems to think I know very little in this or related industries.

Sometimes a model is just a model and I suspect this in one of those times. Can't imagine a full size boat in those proportions.

Thank you all for the help they are giving me, the model was photographed for an advertisement for furniture. I contact the owner to ask if it is a model of fantasy ...

Very very thanks

Regards

I found this boat that could be the model, some of you have any news or photos of this boat? Chris Craft cabin cruiser 29 ft single

[Mr Efficiency]

I'm pretty sure it's the boat Bogie took out of Key Largo. Just looking for the bullet holes.........
