what type of boat is this

[bobbyb]

i should have called her love job because ill never see all the money again.

[Noelm]

if not a Haines, then it is certainly some sort of a "flop" (copy)

[Orrsum]

yeah i'd agree, looks like the V--R series. nice solid looking canopy

yep looks like v17-19r ...great boat though requires a decent HP to get them moving properly.

[bobbyb]

it is a old package with a 485 mercruiser and gets along supprisingly good.

Looks very simmilar to another V17R i have seen around.

[Spaniard_King]

Yep a 19R for sure

bobbyb, what length is it? is the gunnel rubber falling off to the transom or is it following the line of the deck / hull joint? does it have a round bilge? any more photo's? they would really help alot of people to answer your question.

[wayno60]

close, but a bit hard to tell being in the water..

[bobbyb]

thanks pursuit001 im prety sure your on the money with the monark. do know anything about the histery of them in austrailia. i think they were built in sydney.::) cheers rob.

[Noelm]

OH, if that is the shape of the deck to hull joint, then a Haines is out, I thought it was just a painted stripe or something, could be almost anything I guess, don't remember a Monark having that shape join, but they may have made some at one time.

[Kevaclone]

I was thinking a Mustang or Cruise Craft as the chines are straight at the front not turned up like the Haines

The type is straight forward. I guess you're wondering about the maker. Have you tried asking the transport department to conduct a search. If you're in luck, the original rego might come up with a brand name or maker. Otherwise I suppose you will have to see what Ozfish members come up with. There is a wealth of knowledge out there.

[disorderly]

So has the mystery been solved yet?

[bobbyb]

thanks disordery.

99% puruit001 is right and its a monark. just havent seen 1 like it before.
i would like to find some histery on them. any ideas?
