Default What is it?

Was returning from fishing and noticed this boat on a lift in need of some love. It had really interesting lines about 25-27 ft long. Looks like a barn find but what is it?

I was thinking Albermale but it looked pretty old. Not sure how long that company has been around

I was thinking that too but the lifting strakes are wrong - not a Blackfin, Topaz or Rampage either. I'm wondering if it is a customized Stapleton.

Problem is it seems to be owned by a very elderly couple. I go by it regularly but never see them out back. Its sitting next to an old trawler in even worse shape. I will try swing by the house one day. Twin screws ..... I gotta take a closer look!

Albemarle boats went in business in either 1974 or 1975, but that ain't no Albemarle. My uncle started the business. Been in and around many of them.

I picked up a Chris Craft that way...the guy just gave it to me...I cleaned it up, put it on ebay and made a few bucks.

When boating down the canal, just tie up to there dock and go knock.

Sincere flattery is always appreciated. Most boat owners I know delight in speaking about their craft. Take occasion to stop by, introduce yourself and explain the purpose of your visit including some flattering remarks about the boat and then shut up! I am pretty sure you will get more information than you could ever imagine. Good luck!

Let us know what you find out!
