Is this an 18' or 19'?
Pics of your hardware and transom would help.

Welcome to SCJB  ;D

We have several members that are very knowledgeable on the hulls and history of Rogers boats.

That's actually the second Rogers I know of named "Let's Dance". VictorFB from the old Hotboat days has a nice Bonneville by the same name.

Still is, just not active in boating any longer. He's a Dad.... hoping he and Toni get back into it.

Does he still have the boat? I sold this Let's Dance a couple months ago. I bought this boat from a buddy. It came from Arizona a few years ago.
