    Is #61 a Lyman Morse (sp?)?

    Don't believe everything you read, folks.
    I did resemble that 20-odd years ago when my hair was brown and down to my shoulders, with a full, bushy beard. I'm much more distinguished now, still with hair (though mostly grey, that's what the wife/kids/mortgage will do to you), clean cut but with a mous, and a lot wiser.
    Aaargh! Matey.

    It looks similar to this model capable of deep water cruising.

    #61 looks like a Huckins to me.

    Does the Riviera SF in #59 look like something just waiting for a crosswind or is the photo perspective fooling me?

    Hi all,
    Hit the show Saturday morning, pics to come.

    SeaEric, yes that is a Huckins, my mistake. Nice up close and personal.

    Codger, I like Riviera yachts, usually, but that model is a bit, how do I say it without offending, ugly! The bridge seems out of proportion to the rest of the house, like a blob sitting up there. And a crosswind will have an effect on that boat.

    Several models caught my eye (the plastic and wood ones, not the ones of female pursuassion, although I was looking for them - lol). Here are a few from Westport - The 112' (first three shots) and 130'.

    The new Huckins 56. First jet drive built by Huckins, which is the longest standing family owned boat builder in the US.

    I thought the Lazzara was a babe, albeit a bit 'catty.'

    And the Westport 112, now there's something I could recoginize 100 yards away. I think she could use a fashion lesson from her little sister where the rectilinear windows are concerned. The models and the photos are breathtaking. Are these made of 'clay?'

    She is a handsome craft, as is the Vicem 58 FB, her next slip neighbor.
