Nice l@@king boat and a great price to b@@t.............. Wow !

 

[BUIZILLA]

looks like a P&D, the Sea Bird had more bow flare

that 383 is 320-340hp not 380 hp...

wrong prop choice too..

So were they built worth a chit?
I have never ever seen one before and it looks like a neat little toy.

can't tell ya about the buildout... i've lived here virtually all my life on the water and never seen a 'Bird like that... anything back then was all wood where you couldn't see it..

not to poo poo the interest in the boat, but can the Sea Bird heritage be proven other than title or red stuff? I would start there...

I have done a search and all I find is fishing type boats. I have sent an e-mail to the dealer and am waiting for something back.

It's not a Sea Bird, it's either a Monza or a Martini. the only 24's from Sea Bird where Harry Shoell Desings with the Flared Bow.

I agree 100% I mentioned the flared bow earlier... were Monza's and Martini's around in '69?

Seems to have more info and photos.....

Another curiosity, if the boat is a '69. That would be the year Don raced "The Cigarette" Cary and also the year Doc and Charlie started the Banana boat 24" model I think?????

 

[cosmic12]

Thanks Paul, I am waiting to hear back.
I wish I had more info before I talk to him. I can't tell you how interested in this I am but I don't want to buy a potato chip, wish there were some kind of history.

 

[FastDonzi]

From the pics it looks like the hull bottom is the same as the Corsa, P&D, Monza, Martini, Jaws and quite a few others. If it's not rotton it'll be a fun boat to go wake jumping and having fun, I do not belive it was built in 69- More like 89....

Send a PM to Charlie and see if he has any idea. If it is an 69 era boat, he should know.
