Looks like a cross between a 19-6 and a 22-2. I do like the strakes as that is something my 36 year old hull doesn't have.How much do they go for?  I guess whats really funny to me is the almost direct copy of the stringers. I guess we all can see how far ahead of the rest of the boating world our hulls really were! So someone copys them that close, don't you think that makes ours more valuable as an original? Just can't beat that huge footprint of those stringers.  :afro:

At least they added strakes, dorado didn't even bother changing it at all. Of course they never claimed they hired a naval architect and its an all "new" design.

I heard that this boat is being built by bayside marine services in Palmetto.

Add a few strakes and you will be light years ahead of the 40 year old design they copied.
