Title: What brand boat is this??
Post by: TWIZLR on November 21, 2010, 11:31:59 AM

Looking at a project boat, not sure of the brand, the guy says its a 1978 18' Wisconsen with a 400ci Olds.  I can't find any info on that.  Just looking for any info before I buy it.

if it was made in Wis, probablly a 76 or newer CobraJet, does it have a walk through window, the Cimirons looks pretty much the same and the wreidts are close, I have a 74 CobraJetbut the decks are a little different with a wrap around window, check out sidewinders forums, one of many splashes of the winder

Thanks for the info Thompy, I believe it is a Sidewinder Clone and that explains the flat windshield.  I think I'm gonna hold out for something else.  I'm really liking the Sidewinders.
