Can anyone identify this boat?

Hi guys, thinking about buying my first boat and I've seen one I like but I'm unsure of the maker. The seller says it was designed by Power marine but I can't find any info on them. Can anyone identify it from the pictures below? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Ryan

I think they built it upside down!
I don't recognize that design though...

By its current orientation it must be an Australian design.

Re: Can anyone identify this boat?

A sailing vessel should look like a sailing vessel; not like a Boston Whaler with a deck and deckhouse. I don't identify that boat. As you get some experience and want to move on; you'll want something else and will have a bitch of a time selling it. Stay with boats from known designers/builders that have a number of boats out there and track record. With these there will always be "comparables" to give prospective buyers some idea of what a vessel is worth. With custom one-off boats nobody will know what it's worth and you may be stuck with it or giving it away.

Re: Can anyone identify this boat?

Make I can't tell you, but I can tell you it's a rather odd design.
The lack of a Deep V might suggest it's not intended for much in the way of open water.
I kind of suspect you may have a factory hull with a home made deck house.
I don't like to be a negative Nancy when people ask about boats because beauty is so often in the eye of the beholder, but I think you might want to pass on this one.

Looks like a power boat parked next to a light post.

It has a strange kind of charm, though I'm not sure about the orange windshield.

Even right-side up, it could be Batman's boat.
