Boat ID grateful

[neil s]

Hi Guys,

My name is Neil & I'm located on the west coast of scotland (ayrshire) New to the world of boating & boat ownership but picking up loads of useful info searching here & on other boat forums. I'm looking for a 17" to 20" Shetland (570, 560, family 4 etc) or similar style boat to do some fresh water fishing with friends or occasionally use it for weekend family breaks.

I've come across this boat & hoped that someone can tell me what it is? The owner doesnt seem to know what it is.

Thanks in advance
Neil

Welcome to the Forum.
Unfortunately there's no photo accompanying your post so that probably explains why you've not had any replies.

Thanks for the reminder whisper, I realised as soon as the post was made that I had forgot to add the pic but couldn't do anything until my account was approved (today )

so here it is

Thanks
Neil

Shoudn't that be ' A Brace of Black Hawks'
Good hulls those 'Brace's' by the way!

neil s's piccy looks like the boat could be a Drago or Draco?

Hi neil s,

What length is the boat ?

Do you think the black "wheel house" is original ?

( I was thinking an early Quayline but dont think it is, side windows dont look correct. )

17.5FT.

Not to sure if the wheel house has been an add-on or not, I've not been to see the boat yet, wanted to try and identify it before going & having a look.

[Kawasaki]

Having said that
