Aquasport 281

Just picked her up last I plan on rebuilding her

She's a very rare hull. 
Remember if using a phone to take pics, to hold the phone horizontal with the lens to the left. I went into your gallery and rotated all your pics clockwise. I thought this pic was interesting

Biggest Osprey made.

We rarely see these because so few were produced.

Good luck.

Rick it  was I little bit of a challenge to pull the inner mold in one shot. Thought I was going to rip out the top edge of the inner mold.
Capt bob  it took me about a year of looking to get it . The pic that you just posted is the exact same hull, pretty neat

[RickK]

Yeah I bet popping that liner out was some work, with all the bonding putty they use.
There has been a 281 being bought and sold along the West coast of FL over the past 5 or so years - couple of different owners.

Yeah this one originally came from Florida but I got it in north Caroline. I’m almost positive this was Keith knecht’s old boat looks like same numbers
