Just picked up a hydrostream today for 100$, no motor but on a nice trailer. I tryed to Identify the model on the hydrostream registry but the numbers don't match up to any of mine (model #) the hull number is hsp334emm796 it's titled as a 1979 17' This boat is a bowrider v bottom looks simular to a viper only a bowrider and larger. I know the "EM" in the hull number should designate the model according to the hydro registry. Any help would be great. I don't have a picture yet, and have never seen another like it around here. has a cool smoked split windshield, I couldn't pass up a solid boat for 100$:D

Found it, it's a vamp. The length is wrong and the E on the title should be a v. Any one owned one of these?

Same bottom as the Ventura. Very fast with a sane level of power on the back. Quite the sleeper, a "swan" of sorts...

The ugly duckling of Hydrostreams for sure... but with a very fast hull

The ugly duckling of Hydrostreams for sure... but with a very fast hull:D yep !, but I am known for liking strange stuff, never been one to folow the crowd. I don't think there are too many of these left, probably due to it's strange bow. I'm going to name it mr hankey because of the "retro" brown metal flake.
