Is this a Corribee?

I got another mystery boat request, this time from Ireland. However, I am quite sure this is a Corribee, probably MK1. Anyone disagree?


Edit: added a pic of the stern.

I don't think it's a Corribee. There is a little similarity in the coachroof and front window detail, but the hull shape isn't the same, and the stern is completely different.
In saying that, I can't offer an alternative, so perhaps it's a heavily modified Mk1.

I don't think its a corribee although i have never seen the earlier models and so am no expert. I saw a boat that I'm quite confident is identical at Red Cliff boat yard in Dorset £1400 o.n.o. this weekend on a trailer with mast down.

No, it's a Hurley Silhouette Mk3. See my own blog at WWW.silhouette-misty.blogspot.com

Yes, it's a Hurley Silhouette MkIII. Lovely lines. I was able to locate an original advertisement -- purchase price 595 BP. Restoration is well underway.
