"17 Kingfisher - Ocean Sport" - builder mystery

[Spring Time in Vienna]

St John's did have the old Saltspring ferry though, correct?
They eventually had Nor Del build a bunch of 17' CC's that pop up for sale often.

correct. Nor Del was the make.

Unfortunately, no serial number

I bought a 1995 Ocean Sport CC this spring. The serial number is hard to see, but mine is located here. Really enjoyed this boat over the summer.

I was interested to compare your centre console with my dual console. Like you, I really like the boat - except for thumpy ride!
I made 2 modifications which helped the ride somewhat. 1. transom extension, see my photo in this thread, 2. Added a 90L bow tank

Mine came with a pod and a rear fuel tank already installed.

Even with the kicker and a 150 Opti on the back, it sits well in the water and gets up on a plane very quickly.

The ride is a little rough, but I don’t particularly care for fishing when it’s tough conditions and I do like the stability a ‘flatter’ hull provides when I am on the water.
