Good looking boat.

Post by: Cale Thomas on March 01, 2017, 08:35:01 PM: Thanks Jim I looked up Riviera and I'm almost certain that's what mine is. The only thing I am curious about is my hull has a slight tunnel hull design?

Sometimes when a guy makes a new mold, they'll make subtle differences.
But, essentially the same hull. As long as it was laid up well. :thumbup:

Post by: SpectraRyan on March 16, 2017, 01:53:20 AM: Looks exactly like my 85 commander. mine had an outboard though. I had major stress problems with the hull with lead to a crack along a strake twice in the same spot. almost sank both times. Eventually stripped it and scrapped the hull. yours looks a lot cleaner then mine did, thats for sure ;D
