    Hello,

    I just bought this boat and have been trying to figure out what make model it is. It has two tags on the back of the boat but they are faded and I can only make out the stamped numbers.

    While searching the internet I stumbled on this forum and thought maybe someone can help me out.

    I bought it because of the hull design, it's wide and looks stable. I have a jet drive that bolts onto the 70hp and I think the V bottom could be a little flatter but should work. I usually boat around larger lakes with small chop, sometimes the waves get to be around 2'-3' but not that often. Does the hull look like it would work for me? I also picked up another aluminum before buying this one and I'm not sure which one to go with. The other boat is a 16' smokercraft bowrider... very conventional aluminum lapstrake hull design but the keel stops about 8" from the back of the boat which would be good for the jet and it's a little less of a V... not much less though.

    Sorry for rambling on, I wanted to get all the questions out there and give a little back ground of what I'm doing and where I'll be boating so I can get the best advice.

    Thanks
