Hello Gentlemen!
This is a great site....been folowing it for a while. However, I'm feeling like the left out middle child!!
Can someone help me out? I'm especially turning to Mr.Excal and EcaliburHawk40.
I I have an '82 27' Excalibur Center Console. (built for outboards) Thats about all I know. I've only seen ONE on this site and I think it was an 84 Wellcraft era.
Here's a link to my site.

Looking for Confirmation on year, builder, Model Name, quality, original motor specs, safe speed based on its 6-7' beam.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I'll try to get to the boat yard soon.
What do you make of the pics? It almost looks like the same hull the used for the inboard model of that vintage.
Thanks,
Mark

Great Thread! I once saw a Center Console 24' Excalibur for sale.
It ended up in the 1000 Islands, New York. It had one Bolster seat behind the helm. A teak floor. Classy.

Hello Shark 2, welcome, Your boat is a Bill Farmer Excalibur. NAP in your serial # stands for North American Products which was the corporate name for Excalibur Marine after Bill and my father desided to change the original name which was Lightning Boats. You might want to email Mr. Don Abel. I am sure if you read the past threads you will understand who he is and I am sure he would give you some good imput as to the history of your boat. His email address is [email protected] Good luck and please post what you find out. Grant Allen, Richmond Va.

PS. I saw your boat about a year ago in these pictures. I was wondering if someone bought it. It was in N.Y. or R. I. wasnt it? Also, are you sure its a 6' 7" beam. My present day 24 is right on 6' 5" and I thought 27s' were at least 7' 5", but Don will know. C-ya.

another question is there a book about Bill Farmer/ Excalibur Marine or what ever other names he used to produce boats. I found the one on Don Aronow. I thought I found one on Bill but I had to go and I forgot to copy the site I found it at. Let me know.
