yup there it is plain as day especially after I zoomed in on the original high res pic....(of course it appears I was the only one that had any doubts) I'm learnin' slowly but surely.....I never noticed the slope down to the gunnel was so much further back as opposed to right after the end of the windhshield like on the later models.

Now that right there is priceless ! A man and his family simply enjoying a great day boating and fishing !

Actually the "V" emblem created the only doubt I had cause on that boat, it is much farther aft than on mine...was thinking Chris Craft came up w/their own "V" emblem...afterall it was the same V hull...

Here are the two Scorpion pics I referenced before challengin' Willy to a wager...





Rob, you mentioned the turn-down aft of the windshield...that was the 1st giveaway for me, it's not as far back as an early "V"...

...another was the script of the Chris Craft logo on the side...the boat in your second pic has square lettering there, more like the Wellcraft logo...anyway, it was a fun exercise...

Ah! I knew you'd come thru for me REEL....my photo inspection department is analyzing the picture first for authenticity. Once we determine there has been no photoshopping, we'll enhance the quality, blow it up by 300% and take a hard look.
