What kind of Boat is this

[bobcardz]

Can anybody tell what kind of sailboat this is? I can not find any clues in the engine or on the body. There are not sails either.

It resembles an Islander 30 altho difficult to discern from the angle.

Not sure what size or vintage but my money is on Bristol.

it seems to me that Islander never settled down on a "look" Mine is full keel and had big fixed windows with a raised deck so that the side decks were only about four inches lower than the mast step.

That is ,without a doubt, an Islander 30 Mk II.

A stern shot will probably add a clue!

Think it's an Islander 30. Check port side of stern. Possibly an embossed hull/serial #. Fair Winds and Full Sails..

Yes and...

That is ,without a doubt, an Islander 30 Mk II.

...seems to be early to mid 70's vintage.

I concur, that model was introduced in 1970.
So there will not be a VIN on the transom.

Agree, looks like an early to mid 70's Islander 30 with a window replacement, designed by Bob Finch (I worked at the factory).

More/different pictures would help confirm.

Take the reg numbers to the local D.M.V. (or where you reg your car) For a small fee they will give you info
