I think this one has painted white window frames - I think they are
aluminum.



If they are aluminum take a good look at and in the window tracks. Check the
condition of the felting.


I went down and took a good look, (in the rain/sleet/snow).

The window frames are very thick and white - either painted wood or some
kind of very hard PVC or fiberglass. I really can't tell what the
material is as I only looked from outside the boat. The painted aluminum
I saw were screens that are attached to the port and starboard window
frames.

The door is definitely fiberglass with a gel coat.


It could be wood with epoxy paint coating. I've seen that done and
you can't tell the difference.

Well, in any case, I hope it works out for you guys. My wife has had
a hankering for a boat of this style, but I keep finding excuses to
avoid purchasing one. She wants to buy a floating house and I want a
a lean mean fishing machine. Like a Hatteras. Or a Cabo. Or one of
the new 37' Topaz boats which I have an increasing affection for.

Just can't see me in a Grand Banks - ain't my style. :)

Later,
