She is a 26' Oceanic Built by Manny Hernandez(ex GM at aquasport). Boat is a pop of an old 23 Formula. Eloy Roman had the molds the last time I saw them... The HIN is a re-deux.

Same stretched Formula hull as Whitewater, Contender, Seavee, Rampone and certainly some others I have forgotten.. Good running hull, I have the Whitewater version with a full tower, sis has it with a tee top. Both have Yammie 200's, mine runs 50ish, hers 63ish..

Oceanic built some quality hulls, if that is truly one of theirs it should be a good one.. AIR, they used glass tanks, might be a drawback, but not positive..
