Re: What make is my boat
I wouldn't guess Chris Craft.

Is there a Hull Identification Number (HIN)?

Re: What make is my boat
Hi Chris and thanks for your reply, unfortunately I can't find any name plates or identity numbers so I'm assuming the boat must date back to before that system started. Kind regards mark.

I'm in the UK, but I just get the impression from her shape that she's possibly of american origin ?

Funny, My first thought before even reading the OP's post were that she had very UK lines.

I'm happy to see that the bow and stern lines are properly secured in the first photos. Wouldn't want it to drift away in a dry field.

She may very well pass for Swedish. In the dark. With the light be'ind 'er :-)!

Just look at the other boat. Swedish for sure, very Albin like, and she 'erself would not have crossed the Northsea on 'er own bottoms.

Do Swedes use HIN numbers, even today?

Just to the right of the engine, it looks as if a HIN plate was removed.

I love the dry field comment, it's a flood plain so she only floats on the biggest tides.

Re: What make is my boat
The notched out area to the right of the engine is where the auxiliary engine sits, is that where an identity would normally be ?

I figured. It's still funny to see a boat tied up in a field of weeds.
