Anyone seen this hull before?

I was driving through Ozona last night and saw this on the side of the road... very nice looking hull... looks like a lot of the bay boats out there, but with a stepped hull.  I think this may be similar to Yellowfin's new hull.  Pretty cool!

Yes its the same hull design as the Avenger I belive

Thats the old avenger 24. Jerry sold the mold after he finished the avenger 25. Not sure how his build quality is compared to Jerry but it is a sweet hull, very good riding, better than almost all of the bay boats in this category.

I fished out of a Northend 24 with a guide running out of Tarpon Springs.  No tower, 225 Suzuki. Nice boat.

I was at Marauder Marine yesterday talking to Jerry about the Avenger 25.  I'm really impressed.  Those are two completely different animals altogether.

Seadog- was it Yellow?  If so, I think he live in Ozona (near Tarpon)... that boat was NICE.  So what is so different about the 25' Avenger and the old 24' version (now a north end)?

[Seadog]

Not yellow like the picture above.  The one I was on was a light sort of tan / cream color.  

The 25 Avenger is a foot longer and 7" wider (8'-10" vs 8'-3") than the 24.  Jerry lowered the chine some, added more storage lockers in the deck (I think there are 9 total).  The cap is a little wider and the bow cap is a lot bigger for a lot more room to stand on. The 25 has some deck drainage channels the older 24's didn't have.

A lot of thought went into the design of the 25 and it's a really shape lookin' craft with those great lines.  I'm thinkin of maybe gettin one.
