Default So what is the definition of an old school boat?

When does your boat transform itself into being officially old school?

Nice X
It depends on how old you are. There are some folks on here that a classic to them is a Viking Longship. Others ...a 2005. It all depends on lines for me. Big difference between classic and old.

My idea....

Mono hull, deep V, no steps, no notches, heavy as lead and unbreakable. Side by side normally aspirated big blocks. Nothing fancy, just the way race boats were built when I was 10-15 years old dreaming if I'd ever own one! We're talking late 70's stuff.

If it was made with TRS's, or TRS's where available with a power package for your year/model boat.

Edit in: I guess wording would be better as Pre-Bravo.
