Is this a Seacraft?

[JAL]

I have an older '23 Seabird sitting around for a restoration. I'm pretty sure the boat in your photos is an old 'Bird. They were built in Hialeah Florida, thought to be advanced for their time. They used a lot of end grain balsa as coring materials, and a balsa cored bottom, no stringers but an inner liner. They have a 24° Deadrise at the transom with wide chines, not a variable deadrise hull like a SeaCraft, but a good hull for rough water. The hulls were similar in shape to the Formula 233's, which were built in the same area and time frame. 'Birds were built from the mid 60's to around 1980 or early '80's. Some visuals from your photos that make it look like a 'Bird are the curved gunnells at the transom, Carolina flared bow, and the cut outs on the sides of the inside liner.
