Re: 24 ft Orlando clipper

There used to be fiberglass Orlando Clippers made in the Orlando, Florida area many years back...60s-70s. They were in competition with other locally manufactured brands like Cobia and Sportcraft. The hulls looked (identical)like another Florida boat mfg called Seabreeze.

True Orlando Clipper was built in Orlando, Fl<br />some versions were built to Navy spec's built like battleship. Should be tag or sticker somewhere on hull if it is one. If it is you can hit about anything and bounce.

I sold my 18' OC Tri Hull in the 70's. I wish I had it now. It was a great boat. Very well made. Thanks for the memories. If i can find a picture I will put it up.
