    Boat Identification

    I am trying to properly idenify a boat that my brother is giving to me. It has been in storage for 5 years and his wife owned it before they got married. He is tired of paying storage on it and wants to get rid of it. He is not into boats so he can not tell me for sure what it is. The best...
