who made this boat?
 

any one know what company made this boat......

Looks like a beak to me, I'd guess a 12-Meter Fountain, with the flat transon.. A couple of things are throwing me off, tho. The side portals could have been added afterwards, but the rake of the windshield isn't older-Fountain vintage.

Could be a US Navy HSB (High Speed Boat) used by the SEAL's. Fountain made these a while back, too.

Other guesses?

Good one,

I was going to say Fountain also...but as you said the windshield is throwing me off. Also the waterline across the back......Never have seen a Fountain sit up that high.

I have no idea. I'll guess SeaBold.

This boat is a rare bird......just wanted to see if any of you "pro's" could figure out who made it......I'll take a few more guess.......I have never seen another boat like it. I thought it was some kind of custom job, until I found out who made it............

I'm guessing it at the mid 1980's. Waiting for the answer though

Mid 80's is right. I'll give you a hint picture it with a center console,

Donzi??

Wellcraft 38 ?

ttt

well?? well?? we want to know.. is it an early formula?..

magnum??

concept ??

Last hints then I'll tell you. Made in Flordia 27ft. Its called a 27SS.

ITS A CIG!!!!

Good one.

Is it in the Cleveland area?

Nope not a CIG. The cig was a 28SS if im not mistaken. Its 30 minutes east of Cleveland

Scorpion, Signature, Monza...

There you go.. It's a 1984 Monza 27SS. One of very few.

I have owned the boat for a while now and have never seen another one set up like this and I have been looking for them. I have seen center consoles. I have also heard of a factory race boat set up the same with twins.

It's a very solid boat and loves the rough stuff.

Ok, so I was off by a few meters :rolleyes:

What kind of power is in it?

It had a 330 in it with a TRS when I bought. I'm building a 500hp 468 for it now. That Should wake it up a bit. I'd love to see what 700hp would do for it.

When you said think "center council" I thought of Monza. I've only seen a few closed deck boats built by them in the 80's otherwise they build a ton of CC's. I think I remember seeing a 24 closed bow for sale on the internet a few years back. Cool boat. Got any more pictures.

Thanks. Yes I do I'll post some more later
