Size comparison pics.... keep it clean now!

[Sask Kid]

Some time ago I was reading a post/reply by I believe DozerII and it showed a pic of what I think was a 18 or 19 and a 21. Anyone recall this pic? If so could you post a link. Or links to any other pics that show a similar comparison.

Thanks

I think dozerII was showing the differences in V5 and lapstrake hulls. A V5 has a narrower bow.

Damn, was looking to show the wife why I "need" 21+ft verses 18 or 19.

When I was doing research a couple years ago I found this pic online. Says it's a 71 Starchief vs a 74 Chieftain. Big difference there. And from the pic, I'd say that's not the largest Chieftain available.

 

[Sask Kid]

So what are we guessing 19 & 21?

The pic above shows the 24' Chief and a 18' Chief.

I think I know the pic you're talking about, it was with a 26' Islander and a 19' Islander with a 16' tinny in the pic as well.

Strange to have 2 footitis before even having a smaller boat. :lol:

So Julian, are you going to share with the mob what you have done??

 

[Watermann]

I found the thread I was thinking of and it's astor 261 V Islander and an 18' SS in the turtle position. The Islander makes the SS look like a row boat. Not quite what you're lookingfor but here's the pic.

Haha, I will be yes. Just not sure if I should share here or start a "Restoration" thread.

Pic taken at about 5am last Thursday after travelling 900ish KM's of a 1300ish KM's round trip. Made good time 22 hrs. there and back.

More to come in the next few days......

The roads paved, you must have crossed the border for that one. :lol:

A big WLOD Islander, nice save!

Like I said, nice save on the Islander, looking forward to seeing more of it.

here is a shot of 3 of my starcrafts..... Im up to 4 now
the closest boat(blue) is a 1971 21ft Islander....stripped. the middle boat is a 180SS from the early 80s, stripped, the furthest boat is a 1982 22ft Holiday V5...its actually bigger than the islander...even though from this angle..it doesn't look it... the holiday is sitting on the ground!

I think the V5 has a shallower angled bow...for a sharper cutwater....
