It has some cool features . . . Outboard with some decent stern access

If it is made in the USA, it will have a Hull ID number (HIN) embedded in the gel coat on the upper starboard side of the transom, just under the swim platform that shows in the picture.

If you find a number (alphanumeric) post it or at least the first 3 characters and the last 4 characters and we can look it up on the USCG MIC database.

Once you establish what brand it is then you can concentrate on the HP Where you are going to use the boat and the purpose will also help with the HP. I would guess just about any 150 HP motor will satisfy your needs

There is nothing on boat..no plates no numbers.anything.but i think now that the boat was made in italy where i bought it because all words are writen in Italian language.and the windshields are not made out od glass but it is plexiglass or acrylic glass.i think boats made in usa all have real glass.

without a title here, it would be a yard planter. not sure of the requirements in Europe, however I would not touch it without proper documentation.

However from the pics, it looks like it has suffered a fair amount of neglect.

first picture looks like the cap has been repaired near the fuel filler

third image shows the gauges and controls were stripped out as well. the cover has a large amount of mold/mildew under it indicating is has sat with moisture in it while covered for a long time.

Ayuh,.... Welcome Aboard,..... Donno who made yer hull, but it's pretty Cool lookin',....
I'm guessin' yer Right,... readin' yer story, Italian makes perfect sense,....

How tall is the transom where the motor mounts,..?? 20",..?? 25",..??

A 23'er is gonna want a couple hundred horsepower, I'd think,....

With all the work ya gotta do to her, ya may as well call her "Homemade" for the brand,.... ;)

If I knew for sure that a HIN was supposed to be there, I'd immediately assume the boat had been stolen. The HIN was ground off and the gelcoat repaired. Obviously, you already bought it, so I wish you luck with the restoration and registering/titling it. It is a cool looking boat.

In the 2nd photo what does it say on the gold sticker next to the switches? Could that be the capacity plate? Since you already bought it what sort of paper work did the previous owner give you?

On the starboard side towards the stern there is: LV0714. This may be some sort of registration number. Check the local government of the city where you bought the boat and see if they have any records. Also, as I asked earlier, what is on the gold colored sticker on the dash next to the switches?
