Need help identifying make of boat

[Mac985]

Hi Everyone,

Sorry if this is in the wrong section,apologies if it is.

So the issue I have is that my father has bought a 27 footer from a guy who stays locally to me. Now, the guy inherited the boat and doesn’t really have much knowledge about boats or any information about the boat itself.

My father has had boats all his life so he’s no stranger to them, we are both stumped as to the make and model of it. The closest I’ve found that resembles it is a Seamaster 27. Although there are a few differences that make me think it’s not a Seamaster.

I will attach a photo of the boat and if anyone could help that would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Iain

I’ve been advised that it could be a senior 26

Does anyone on here have one or know of anyone who does ?

That is indeed a Senior 26 built by Senior Marine in Romsey, the owner of which was also the founder of Seamaster Boats and co founder of Elysian. The moulds went on to be used by Marine Projects, who then became Princess Yachts Ltd.

The main reasons a lot of boats from this era look similar is because there was a lot of interaction with the builders who moved around.

Tha boat looks to be a fine example, are there any more pictures?

Thanks for that information. That will let me dig a bit deeper on it.

Don’t have any other pictures at the minute, I’ll post some more at the weekend.
