I am looking for info on these hulls. How they ride Smooth and rough water? Weight? Exactly what model is it? All I know is Holmes set up for BBC.

Looks like a dragon craft to me. Never seen one like that with a jet pump.

If you search the internet you'll find numerous examples of Holmes Horizons with hulls similar to what you posted. The interiors are different, but optional interior layouts were often offered in the same models.

Mine rides pretty good except for wanting to porpoise a little. Has trim tabs to help adjust. Of course mine is 22 feet and also converted to an open bow which changed where the weight sits, so it's not necessarily an apples to apples comparison

I'm in the middle of restoring a similar Holmes. Just saw one on CL a few weeks ago let me try to find it.
