Must admit I thought this had Seamaster'ish lines but not at all sure. Any ideas??

Home or yard built fit-out on a Seamaster 813 hull and superstructure?
Hard to tell as the angle of the shot does not show the bow clearly which would identify it for sure.
Finally living the dream!

Poor excuse, Clive!
I think you can rule out a Seamaster 813 hull as the Boat Listing has it as a 21 footer:
Escape - Length : 6.4 metres ( 21 feet ) - Beam : 2.02 metres ( 6 feet 8 inches ). Grp hull colour : Blue, Superstructure colour : White
Powered by a Single Outboard Petrol engine with a power of 25 HP. Registered with the Broads Authority number 617G as a 0 Motor Private Motor Boat. ( Last updated on Saturday 18th July 2015 )
Unfortunately, it doesn't show the builder's name.
Keep trying!  |

Too lazy to check Fred, maybe a Senior hull? Can't find anything on them to check the old range. Memory isn't what it was and too much happening here right now.

Good suggestion Clive, but not a Senior 20 hull (as in 2nd pic) as far as I can see.
It's got me beaten so far but let's all keep trying.

Got to say Fred that this one has annoyed me, the more so as I cannot match it either.
That Boat Listing says it is slightly narrower beam than a Norman 20 and a tad longer.
Yet when I look at it it does look a lot bigger than a narrow beam 21 ft boat so I wonder if the numbers given the Broads Authority are wrong?
To me it looks like a lot larger boat, and the rake of the bow, the way the chines hit the stem in the top 1/3, the angle of the cabin front (ignoring the wooden wheelhouse) says to me about 8'6" beam at least and 24 feet long. So apart from the fact that they had a more rounded and bluff bow Seamaster 24, but it looks like there might be spray rails moulded in under the chines, the foredeck has a reverse sheer like Selcruiser used to have so built for more speed than the usual canal chuggers - oh, I give up!
I hate you Trevor, I got a head-ache now! hahaha

| I echo nearly everything you say, Clive, as I've had many of the same thoughts ........ except for hating Trevor, of course. |
