I was thinking '96 or 97. 31'. I Like that it still had aluminum platform. Thought the 33avs would have been cool without fiberglass integrated for an aluminum one. If I ever downsize that would be on my list.

I am with Glassdave, as there were a few 94-95 29s that had the same basic paint scheme, assuming it is original?

As for the 33AVS without an integrated platform, there is 1 31 AVS w/ an aluminum platform in existence. I had seen it for sale, went and looked at it (it was beat), and tried to buy it as what I thought would be a cool project, but couldnt come to terms. Based on conversations I had with someone who used to be involved with Wellcraft, it was the prototype hull for the AVS bottom, as inserts were used in the 31 mold to create steps. Once the bottom was good, they added the intregrated platform. Whether that is actually true, well, who knows?

The last known whereabouts I had for it a few years ago was in Pa. I tried to buy it in 02. It was in NJ on the Delaware at the time.
