Ok, what kind of boat is this?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/e... 1&item=4543924215&category=63730
They say it's 20ft, but it's not wide enough to be a tornado (may be a Prindle 19)? Anyone else know?

Doesn't it look like a Hobie 20?

Somebody in So. Cal can get a good boat cheap, no bids yet at $499? The trailer is worth that!

Yeah, I didn't think about that...it is a Hobie 20. That teal mesh tramp screams "HOBIE!". Anyway, that is a good deal, even though it doesn't have sails.

I agree, from the hulls it looks like a Hobie 20, but I never saw one with aluminum color mast and cross beams; all I've seen were black anodized...

Try P19 or P18-2.... They claim its 20 feet long... so my guess is a P19.

Not a Hobie.

It has to be a Prindle 19. This is "right next door" to us. 20 minutes away in fact. The hulls look to have had a bunch of work done. Multiple ports added and looks like they installed wing tubes.

If you look closely at the daggerboard slots it looks like the boards pivot up. Dosen't the P19 do that? My vote is the P19!

I would agree P19 without a doubt.

Definately P19. I'd buy it for that price if I didn't live on the other coast.

Sorry Mary not a H20,

The crossbars are not right, H20 tramps don't lace up like that, even the throughhulls for the trapline bungee. BTW if there are "no sails for this item" what is that on the tramp???
