I've been searching for info on this boat, can't find any. I was told only 3 was made at the 19ft. I purchased it off original owner, but he didn't have an owners manual. Does anyone have any info on this boat, or if its even possible to get an owners manual on it? He gave me the manuals on the Mercrusier 225 HP, 302 (Ford). Hull # CMAS11090474, engine serial # 3838039, Manufactory Crosby Marine Skier. Also references Connolly Marine LLC, Serial # S1109. Thanks
That is a very nice example of a Hydrodyne 18 tournament skier (as I understand it). It maybe a Hydrodyne Imperial by the jump seats facing front and rear and the gunnel padding but pics are not clear enough to tell. A few more pics might give the community a better idea of what you have. Thanks!
I posted for the boat and trailer (trailer is the original with boat also). As you can see both boat and trailer is 19ft. I'm going to upload more photos, maybe you will be able to give me more info, than what little I already have. Thanks so much for the reply.
That is a Hydrodyne 18 with the imperial interior. I think one of the previous owners miss represented the length on the title IMO. I am not calling you out if you think it is 19 feet, didn't happen out of the mold (unless modified heavily as in big $$ for a boat that did not really qualify for such mods). Hydrodyne only had molds for the 18 foot (1968 to 1978) and 20 foot 1982 to today special ordered) Your boat is not a Hydrodyne 20 (Pics of my 20 I/O are attached). I really think you have an 18 in a nice configuration.
I have it all original but I cant find the owners manual where in the hell could I get it at ....and I like your boat is it an inboard
I had a 1974 just like this. Same exterior colors but my seats were not this nice. 302 inboard. I loved that boat. It got rode hard and pretty wore out when we sold it. I've thought about doing a DMV search to see if I could find it and re build it.
