help me find the Outboard Family boat

[oukno]

Hi, a few years back I was looking at a boat that had an HIDDEN outboard engine on it.
It was a family boat shaped similar to a Malibu or such, open bow and all of the normal things you would find in a ski/wake board family boat
BUT it was an out board. It had a cover that went over the top of the outboard hiding it and the cover had (similar to a wake board boat) platforms on each side of out board engine.
I for the life of me can't remember the name of the boat
Someone please help me...
Thank you
Matt

It's a cool idea. I think CC was the only one of its kind. Kogs led you to the one I was thinking of

No not a chriscraft (not that I don't love them) this boat was a newer boat and the outboard sat outside the stern with the cover going over it and the platforms to climb in the boat on both sides of the outboard
it was an open bow too
thanks for helping but more help please...

Bayliner had an "L" drive that kinda' looked like an outboard packed inside a hull, but I don't know of anything else besides some workboats I've seen in the past.

I think they coined that setup "quietrider"
