Help me identify this hull

[onedakine]

If anyone can shed some light as to what hull this might be would be greatly appreciated!

I bought this boat about a year ago.
The title says 1972 19’2” Bayliner. I’ve never seen a Bayliner with hull sides and squared off bow like this.

I bought it here on Kauai so it’s likely the enclosure was homemade.

I've never seen a Bayliner like this either. LOL

I never thought it would be such a task uploading photos, I’m trying... lol

Looks a lot like these two, squared bow, hull shape, and what we can see of the area above the rub rail.

Those sure look like it. Wonder what model it is? And what would be the reason for the squared bow design.

so you have a bit more bow to stand on when tying off your lines to the dock.

The squared bow was probably just a marketing ploy. People could sit on the bow and dangle their feet in the water if they have long legs.

It may help with splash from the bow.

It should be either a "Quartermaster", 86" beam, 140 hp, 18' long

or a "Admiralty", 90" beam, 165/170 hp, 19' long

All the pics I've seen of an Admiraltys and Quartermasters are pointy bows. So I don't know.
