Could be a 1967 Nassau it was offered in green. My 66' 16 footer is a Nassau and was offered in light blue that year, not say that the boats were not produced in other colors. It should have an ID plate somewhere on the boat w/ serial number size and model.

Check out the 1967 brouchure it looks identical to your boat.

Each model only came in one color each year in the 60's and early 70's. Please post a pic of the stern and the top and we'll tell you what it is.

BTW, welcome to iboats and that's a nice rig you got there.

Welcome, good lookin rig. Anxious to see more but what is pictured looks like it had a previous owner that took good care of it.

If you want you can add a bit more in your profile to let us know where you are.

Wow that boat is in great condition from the looks of it:)

I agree that it must have been looked after, probably stored indoors for 50 years. It probably is a mid or late 60s Jupiter if I had to guess.

Check out some of the brochures linked in my signature for more information.

Welcome to the club!

Welcome Sidepiper. Very clean boat. Be careful removing the tape from the for sale sign, windshield looks like new.

Welcome! Looks like a Jupiter to me. Probably older than my '66 was as I didn't have lapstrake below the chines.
