It's a 89 19' Mach 1. I was told they were built in St. Petersburg. This is the only one I have ever seen, it's a blast to drive! I was wondering if anyone had any more pics or info

I agree. It needs something. I'd like to find the original logo I've searched this site for threads and pics and haven't found anything.

Pretty much. A guy on here from the virgin islands sent me a big deposit to hold it for a couple months. I bought this off a good friend to use til I figured out what kind of boat I wanted to get next. Haven't ran into you in a while hope all is well!

It does look a little bit like an XT-inspired bottom, but with some key differences:

The corners of the stern are cut at a different angle to reduce the hull length and its built-in setback;

The area where the forward end of the sponson blends in is smoother and more geometric-looking. It's also further back from the bow;

The bottom side of the sponsons looks angled instead of flat;

The pad doesn't have the deep channel on either side;

The sides have an extra "ridge", and look more flat, lacking the bubbled front end and the concave shape toward the stern.

Cool looking boat.

Looks a lot like a Laser LTV, or the Critchfield Hull. Atleast the bottom does, the top side looks more like the Hydrostream Valero
