Maybe a rubrail down hull is the answer. The image of the FBC/Sportfish is seen everywhere......I could go with a Bahia, but then again, I have a Bahia.

Didn't get to attend, but is it possible to split the tasks so that different people can take care of different pieces.
ie:
dockage
tent
meals
entertainment
shirts
sponsors

312 designates the open model (Moppie)
313 = hardtop model
314 = sport fish model
315 = fly bridge cruiser
316 = Bahia Mar model
317 = express model


I think you missed a little on the models ... not sure on the others, but I'm pretty sure Bahias are 316.

Tony ...
Is it possible that dealer had the boat, it was a 1974 and he ... not potentially wanting to take a "hit" for it being a "last years model", represented and sold it as a 1975 and titled it as such ?
The title says whatever the dealer put down on the application.
