Not sure it's a glasscraft.
Not sure it's a glasscraft. Best place for an id is old school trailerboats on fb.
Does anyone know where the love of god goes, when the waves turn the minutes to hours?

Looks like it's a Chivers Thunderbird to me.

Weve had a 25 glasscraft in
Weve had a 25 glasscraft in the family since I was a kid. That looks just like it only smaller, same hatch in the bow,rake in the back of the cab, planked sides. It wouldn't have had the swallowtail and outboard from new I reckon but pretty sure its a glasscraft. Used to bump uglies with a chick when I was young whos old man worked for glasscraft and helped build grandads boat.
having said that glasscraft where different below the chines

Actually, changed my mind, I've had too many beers, the chines are different.

Yeah it's a hard one.
Yeah it's a hard one. Amazing boat tho it's 23ft with the pod and sit amazing in the water handles the rough well. Has the shape of a glasscraft but some features that don't match though.

Forefoot not quite deep enough?
The deep forefoot was very distinctive on the 23 ft Glassys.

Cabin
The cabin looks like being from a Glasscraft Wildcat but the hull is not "clinkered" enough for it to be Glasscraft.
Look at gunnel...roughly 1 foot from the front...looks like it takes a near 45 degree angle (typical of Swiftcraft). Could it be a Swiftcraft of some description with a Glasscraft top deck?
I did then the best that I knew how. When I knew better, I did better.

On Gumtree now
Supposedly a Glasscraft Wildcat converted to CC. Looks like it, an old fisherman had one in kalbarri for many years. Clinkers are distinctive.
