Wow,
I remember when those Poole Chaffee's were considered the "big dogs" of their time... Sun Dream, Netanya IV, Thomson I ... now they are dwarfed by the megayachts of today

Elco ? Mid to late '20s about 44' name unknown... remember as a boy riding on one in the Hudson River, had chain steering and chain throttle and clutch, coming into the dock was always a treat!.....

Aphrodite by Purdy Boatworks? My first guess was an ELCO too.
Aphrodite was in a Classic Boat article in the early 90's.

Looks more like a Consolidated than an Elco, and the transom is all wrong for a Mathis.

Nope, nope. Any more guesses? A few hints- She is 47' and built in 1932. I thought this one would be easy.

I'm sure I've seen it before, just can't quite recall.

Yeah Seafarer, I've seen the pic somewhere, can't remember if it was Classic Boat or Wooden Boat mag.
P.S. Just looked up the Purdy, FAR more sexy.

I know I've seen it as well. It sure doesn't look like a Wheeler, and I don't really know Matthews well enough to say for sure, though it's possible.
