Hello all.

I'm not sure if this is where I post this question, but here goes. I just came aquired another project. A friend of mine gave me a hull, it is 12' long and just under 5' wide. The name plate says Lazer and the manufacturer id; Camstar. Anyone ever heard of this boat? I'm not sure what I will do with it, but I it is an interesting boat. When I get the digital camera, I'll try to post pics if anyone is interested in seeing it.

Thanks
Lanny

Ps: The Predictor is coming along, slower than I would like, but she is coming along. Thanks for all the help I have recieved on here.
 
Here's the pics. I've seen the brand before, and also under another name.

Thanks Coop

Thanks Coop, me and my Gal couldnt quite figure out how to post, but I think I might be getting a handle on it.:bigthumb:
 
So is it a 'Mate'?

Now that the pics are here, thanks to Coop, does anyone know or think that this hull might be a Checkmate?

hello. i have a 1986 Camstar Lazer in great shape. i'm selling it, actually. on Seattle and Bellingham Craigslist. i'm thinning my boat collection due to a move, but this one is a blast on lakes and the Puget Sound. Kept in great shape. It's got a 40hp Nissan with electric start, cover, and newly refurbished trailer. 360 710 0728
 
Now that may be the best 12' boat design I've seen! Not only is it good looking, but it's a bow-rider for true 3-seat capacity! Coop, THIS is the small boat you want to build!
 
That would be a fun project to put a Merc sport jet in. Nice boat design, I have never seen one in person.
 
I wrote Playbuoy about the molds for these boats and got this response:

Jim - these were purchased boats that we remarketed so we have no components. I believe the originator has long been out of business.
