i used the trailer from my fantasy and the beam width on this hull was to wide so i had to remove fender bolts and butterfly the fenders out and float the hull forward past the widest part of the boat. i forgot to ask the width of the hull  :-[.
we had to figure something out at the launch ramp, funny on the way home my son asked if we were rednecks?? :D

No, You Don't!  ;D  None of mine are THAT dead yet....... :screwy:

Yeah, it's a Sleek for sure. Probably an early Kauai like Bowriders, although it does resemble my Moo more, just a little bigger.  Don't see many Sleeks with Jacuzzi's in 'em though.

Ray

Yours also has been capped, obviously. Kindof a piece of history, sell it to someone to rebuild, don't just cut it up.

 Yea, grab what you want out of it and Ray will come get whats left over. He might say No now, but he really wants it or he wouldn't be here looking at the pics.  I think he wants/needs another project.  ::) ;D

Gee, thanks Jeff......That's JUST what I need..... :sly:

Ray

In looking at it though......... :screwy:.......it's almost as flat as Pickle is but with the taller transom of Moo........Still trying to figure out just what my boat is as well. Could be a fun project for sure, even 1/4 stringer.

Dont have any pitures of my boat in one piece really.. Heres a couple I took before though. Back looks the same. Let me know if you want some measurements of pictures of anything to compare. Mine also says "Sleekcraft - By Nescher"

let me know if anyone is interested.
