Denny, that's actually a 27' SeaVilla. The SeaMaster doesn't have the big side windows.

Sorry to break it to you Fr. Frank...
It is a SeaMaster!
The SeaVilla has no flybridge.
See ya, Ken

Oh No! Wrong AGAIN! Rats! That's twice in one day.

Really I wanted to look at just the relationship between the windshield and hull lines the paper was to keep your eyes focused on that and not what held it up there.

We've all done this. That said...I'm not feeling it. The hull and windshield have lots of rake and angularity and the abruptness of the "pop up" looks out of place.

Not trying to be a jerk, just some honest input before you spend a lot of time and money. Good luck.

Ditto on the way I feel also...but here is something else to look at.

Understood. I have a Radon after all...pretty much the ugliest boat ever UNLESS you are weird like me. The difference though is that Radons are ugly from their inception. I hang out here for the eye candy.

Heck, I thought Radon was something here in Florida you had to have your house inspected for from radioactive soil. However, I bit, and looked up their web site....never even heard of them. Not too ugly compared to some Boston Whalers I've seen.

A very nice Radon with a HermCo bracket,

Always wondered about Radon's. Well thought of hulls, look efficient, but also like they would beat your kidneys to bloody mush. How do they get away with the steering station so far forward?

Maybe it's because the long swells in the Pacific are a little easier to handle than the steep chop we tend to get in the Atlantic, especially if the wind is blowing against the gulf stream! Not that the Pacific can't get rough, but I suspect that percentage-wise, the east coast tends to see rougher seas. It does looks well protected for that cold water spray!

They ride better than you would think going into it, and ride downhill better than anything. Everything is pushed to the front so you can pile a ton of crap on the back. They are more of a tool than anything. Most are butt ugly but I like them anyway.

Here is mine...
