Looks like a Sidewinder or Tahiti copy. I like them with the windshield on them.

Me too. I am guessing I will have to make a windshield for it. It is close to a Sidewinder, but the 'kickups'? where the back of the windshield attaches too are further back.

That's a very cool, classic boat. Absolutely love the Mercury 1500 on it, too!

Thanks guys, I think it will look much better with a windshield, but that transom keeps whispering to me to put my 2 - Merc 100's on it.

Sweet looking boat! But the aluminum plate bolted to the transom is whispering (actually yelling) "better do some checking first" to me.

Yup, I agree. floor is super solid, but I haven't gotten a good look at the transom, only a flashlight inspection.
