Seabird - Custom???? Anyone know more about these?

I found my fathers old boat and finally figured out what it is.....a 1974 Custom Seabird 26' with an 8' beam. Anyone know where I can find more information our about seabird?

Thanks,

Seabird made a 19 ft. Scorpion - with a single 225 Merc I/0 - I had one - in 1969 - Think that is what this boat is -

Hey Phil,

thanks for responding, however the one in the pics above is 25' long with a single 427. Here is a brochure I found later.



Anyone else have any info please let me know.

In that brochure pic, that's Harry Schoell driving, and Butch Elliot from Chrysler or Interceptor hanging on.

1973 Seabird Stilleto Custom
Hey Brownie,

If you get a chance, ask Harry the following:

I was curious about the deck on the boat pictured. On the title it says seabird custom.

Did Seabird build a flat deck version of the boat in the brochure?

Was it for racing only or was this customized elsewhere?

Does he remember the racing days when it was called Warlord?

Thanks for your help!
