    I'm sure our senior members have a good idea on this, but how about some of our new members or regular viewers. Can you identify this yacht based on the picture provided? There should be "just enough" detail in this picture to venture a guess...

    That is my new yacht. I would appreciate if you would post a proper picture :rolleyes:
    My only guess is that it's in front of the Ft. Laud. Marriot

    WOW... you figured that out and you don't even live here?? I'm impressed!! Yep... it's in front of the Marriott, so you know it must be BIG!

    I'll post the rest of the pictures of your boat when you guess what your boat is. ;)

    I'm sure that is the ex AUSSIE RULES. I heard, her new name is FLORIDIAN. She was built at Oceanfast.

    You are ALL correct! Congratulations!!

    She's still under the Aussie Rules name. These pics were taken in front of the 17th Steet Marriott in Ft. Lauderdale. Exactly 24 hours later, I found her 50 miles north, at the Port of Palm Beach. She really lives up to her builder's name... OceanFAST!

    It's hard to fit her in the frame of a camera and be close enough for any detail...

    You recieve full credit Dave! I was posting at the same time as you.

    You guys are GOOD! I left just enough of her red details stripes in the first picture to give you a hint. I was surprised at the offline e-mail I received on this. No less than 10 people (industry execs who like to remain anonymous) responded.

    I know your location. Just south of the Commercial Blvd bridge in Ft. lauderdale. The Benihana is in background, which is 6 houses away from where I grew up; Tradewinds Ave in Laud-by-the-sea.

    Regarding the boat... looks like a go-fast wearing a Halloween costume?

    Looks like a candidate for the Rogue's thread or a Charles Shultz cartoon later this month (the Great Pumpkin).

    Agreed on all. A customer texted that photo and expressed interest. I'm just trying to figure out what the heck it is! When I expand the original photo there seems to be a stylized "B" logo toward the stern. Anyone?
