Hi all, been looking in now best part of 2 months. Owned 2 ally boats before, all welded semi flat hulled seastrikes in the uk, one 12ft the other 14ft. Sold them on when i started my business a year and a half ago as times were hard
Things are a little easier now and have just bought a second hand 16 foot long rivetted boat called an "OMC Princecraft 495", i'd say she is a semi vee, the hull flattening out about a 1/3 back from the bow. Not sure how old she is but is in cracking shape, just needing a new coat of paint, the bench seats removing and a new ally chequer floor installing.
In my eyes, she looks very similar to a friends 16 foot sea nymph, dated about 1996 i think.
Really, am looking into all your combined knowledge to see what they can tell me about her origins/history etc. Wasn't OMC and Sea Nymph merged in the 90's, or so i'm told??
Afraid there is no chance of me posting pics up, its a miracle i've got this far such are my computer skills But, if someone lets me email them, i have a few shots of her i could whack across.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
