How long is the boat? HINT: use a tape measure and measure from bow to transom.

It looks like a SPORT 13 or something similar. The blue cockpit color indicates manufacture prior to c.1973. Compare at

Why don't you find the STENCIL NUMBER or the HULL IDENTIFICATION NUMBER? See

It is a Nauset. It was made in the mid 1960s. It is 16' 6"

It has the reversible pilot seat and the bow rails of the Sakonnet model but I don't see the bow platform. It could be a Nauset that had the optional reversible pilot seat and bow rail installed or a Sakonnet that is missing the bow platform.The hulls for the Sakonnet and Nauset were the same. The steps by the bow locker make it a 16'7" the 13" did not have them.

Thanks so much for the help. Any guess to how much the boat is worth? Just a range.
Thanks!
