That looks like a modified formula 233 hull

The race boats are FARRR steeper. The entry is just insane on the racers.
Looks like a lot of stuff for the price though.

On an angry note. Some fine individual sold a set of `00 carbd 150 johnnys out from under me after we had agreed on a cash price pending inspection tomorrow...
As the decades go by I`m liking humans less and less...

I`m doing hurricane prep.
Beer?
Check
Ice?
Check
Put the bimini down?
Check

And the Emmy goes to Jim Cantore.

That's the first thing that popped into my my head, The strakes on the hull look defiantly like the ones on the 223 or the may hulls copied from that design. This is defiantly looks like it could be an 70's vantage racing hull tho. This has Don Aronow written all over it....

Now that Blue hull you posted now that's just sexy!!!! :D

Sorry about the johnnies, I could write a book about the things I have had almost gotten...... From "I will hold it to you can drive down tommrow" to "I know you had a deposit on it but this guy got here first and had cash" Some people cant wait just a day sometimes. :(

I think it's a 21'-22' Formula from the late 60's.
I think this is the hull the 233 was designed from. Single BB inboard.

Back in the early 80's, Frank Brown had one in his yard in Palm Beach Gardens that was slowly fading in the sun. If I remember correctly, he sold his hull to someone who planned to convert it to surfacing-piercing.
