I have no idea what make or model that boat is. But, if you can't get a straight answer from the owner on that simple of a question you will never get any truth out of him.

What he said

I would pass on any boat that the seller is not forthcoming.

Looks like a hack job with that stereo system. That head unit is butchered right above the glove box. And that front speaker in the bow next to the casting chair...yikes! Makes one wonder what else was hacked into/on/out of that boat.

As for make/model that should be on the title/registration for the boat of which I see the registration numbers are gone. What does the paperwork say??

I also second this. Walk away. There is something they aren't disclosing, and it's probably the reason they are trying to sell it. I didn't realize this when I bought my boat and ended up with a project boat with a rotted transom, engine issues, rotting deck... You get the picture.

Oh yeah, and if there is no paperwork, all you are going to end up buying is a large expensive lawn ornament. Sometimes it's easy to get a title, but many times it's not. I would still be walking away at this point.
