I once looked at buying a 24' bare hull from a guy in Miami some years ago, as I remember it was a "Signature." Does this ring a bell with anyone?

I would guess it was a Commander Signature 24, they're made on the West Coast.

Signature was a boat company back in the late 70's/early 80's. They made a 27 and 39. They may have made other sizes. My Dad's throttle man had a 39 called "High Roller." From what my dad tells me, these boats handled like crap. Here is an old Signature race boat for sale.
