Not sure what make that is but it's sure a neat looking boat. I like the twins to :) Maybe check out fiberglassics.com, there's alot of knowledge over there on the older cruisers. Good luck!

It looks like a Dorsett, there is a link in the boats by maufacturer at the bottom of the forum, to some photos.

Welcome to the Boards!

Not sure, but it kinda looks like this I believe: http://fingerlakes.craigslist.org/boa/2785642443.html

Kinda a neat boat

EDIT: Now that I look at them side by side, they are not the same boat--but they do have a similar style. Certainly may at least get you going in the right direction.

Yea that has been for sale for a couple months at that price. Not sure if it has been sold or not, but I thought it looked like a real nice deal, price includes the trailer I believe.
