Classic ID?
This boat is at our marina and have been wondering for a few years what it is, I have never seen it move or owners of it. I figured someone here would know what it was. It seem very narrow and to be about 27-28 feet. Its not a triton, one guy on the dock suggested it was, stern seems too narrow. Just curious anyway

Re: Classic ID?
no, this boat is nowhere near 31 feet,no bowsprit and large portlights are way more rounded. I thought i took a better side view but I didnt. I will take a few more pics this week when I head to marina. The boat you have pictured sure is nice though!

Re: Classic ID?
If you can get close enough to copy down the registration #'s, Virginia Dept of Game and Fisheries will give you the owners info. Tell them it's docked illegally or you need to contact the owner for some reason....OR, if it has a serial # on the transom, the manufacturers info can be looked up.....OR...if you can get a good shot of the boot stripe from end to end, or just both ends....Good Old Boat magazine has a boat identifier that uses the stripe to id......Or.......just ask the dockmaster if he knows what it is....

Re: Classic ID?
At first I thought so too, but when i get a side view shot(tomorrow) you will see that the fixed large portlights are not the correct shape, some one told me me it was a swedish made boatTritonSean wrote:sure looks "Pearsonish"... the forward port should be a giveaway.

Re: Classic ID?
Go look at Great Dane 28's and you might see some similarities.

Re: Classic ID?
Note the classic Rhodes sheer line, In my opinion, he did prettier sheers than Alberg. Really sweet.
For comparison, here's a Rhodes Meridian 25. This was at the beginning of 7000 miles of cruising aboard her, last three years, In fact, pic was taken exactly three years ago yesterday.

Re: Classic ID?
for anyone interested, this boat is berthed at my marina and looks as good as pics from outside, although a bit dirtier as she hasnt been washed in a while. Inside I cannot speak of. Looks like a very very nice plastic classic for sure. this pics i posted were taken on those dates. so that is what she looked like then and now
