Carbone Barca knockoff 20 seacraft???

[cbboatworks]

Has anyone ever heard of a Carbone Barca 21? there is one on CL and the guys says it was built in FL in 1974 off of the the 20 seacraft molds.. i can pick it up for a few bengermins

Word jumble - actually a Continental Barcone. At first glance a 20 knockoff but it lacks a strake and a hull panel to either side of the hull. Can't speak to build or ride quality.

I did not go look at it but thought something did not look right..Thanks

Those boats look like a SeaCraft above the chine, but it's just a conventional deep-V with flat strakes, not a VDH!. They even made a knockoff of the Seafari, but I think it's just a cheap imitation with wood stringers, etc. Construction quality would be a serious issue in my mind!

Hey I resemble that what's wrong with wood stringers The 21 is wood strung and the wood is over 50 years old...


Just yankin' your chain...

Yeah....instead of wood, wishing it was composite/epoxy.
