Anyone know anything about this hull? It says it's an Eliminator, but I've never seen it before. Looks like an Avenger??? Anyone know (I bet Old Rigger does.) :D

DC, That looks alot like my hull which is a Kona. The post that back forty sent ya is also a Kona. Mines upside down but if you look at the rear it looks the same. My deck is identical to yours. Heres the pichttp://www.hotboatpics.com/pics/data/500/5021000_0118-med.JPG

I think the way to tell a kona from an Eliminator is whether it has full stringers or a floor glassed in for rigidity. The Eliminator has stringers that are full length. Also the Eliminator has two less strakes.

I don't think it looks like the hull of my Kona (which also looks like a Tahiti) the rear deck in that picture goes all the way back where it doesn't on mine. There are similarities on the bottom of it though, as for the trailer I have no idea mines is the wrong trailer for my boat.

my guess would have been a Tahiti or a Kona, but what do I know?
All avengers have the tell-tell sharp edge running down the side of the hull.
Hey Todd, did you see the thread on Buck Smith Spicos in the v-drive section? Little info there for ya.
