It's likely to be a 246 CCC (Center Console Cabin), but it would be 24' 6" from transom to bow, not 27' - are you including a bow pulpit in the measurement? 

The 24-6 was made for a few years around 1980.

Always keep in mind, anything that is not part of the molded structure, i.e. pulpits and brackets that are bolted on, can not be counted towards LOA.  However, molded in portions of the boat, i.e. molded in pulpits and "euro- swim platforms" may be counted, and may be understated...makes it easier to make the boat "grow" with a decal change... :shock:  :shock:

I'm with Capt John.  Probably a a 24' 6" or 25' if it has a small cuddy foward.  Aquasport made a 27' with a full cabin but it was not a center consle.  The 271 and 281 Osprey were center consoles listed at 27 and 28 foot respectively but were only made in 87 and 88 and were not available with any small cuddy cabin. They basically were a 222 on steroids.  You can see a picture of one under my name in the members gallery.  The 27's had a 9'7 1/2" beam and that would be a dead giveaway.  If the boat in question has a 8 or 8 1/2' beam it's probably not a 27. Hope that helps.
