Looks like a sidewinder but it would have to be a 14 footer with that deck style. It's definitely not a Jcraft

Ya...I forgot about that...the hull looks like a checkmate though.

Well if you are desperate to confirm for sure you could try and contact the feds and trace the numbers on the boat. The problem is that they are the old style ones and not electronic and it might take years if at all to get the info.

May not have the spelling correct. But, could it be a Capricorn? They were a splash Sidewinder made by a fellow whose main business was fiberglass caps for pick-up trucks.

I'm thinking fibretron. or sidewinder. Or other such splash.

Take a couple pics of the back end of the boat and post them up, if it's a sidewinder splash you will be able to tell by the corner of the boat at the back.
