did someone here get it, or did it go to the guy on Iboats? hope he appreciates it and finds his way here...

Actually, based on his description, that must be a G/C Conquest as he's saying it has a bow hatch.

WOW !
Until now didn't know there was a Conqust ...

I hope he brings the Corinthian back to the meet one of these years.

Ya, thanks. I added them to my archives too. These do not come around very often.

Btw...am I the only one who looks at these boats and see's a 'Duck Billed Platypus'? Or a Spoonbill fish?

It'd be a cool boat to have on the river.

YA ! ! !
There weird lookin' that's for sure ...
First look at the inside of cuddy and Conquest has a sink/fridge thingy in back of drivers seat.

I'm sure this has been mentioned before but have you noticed that all too often people are trying to sell their boat and have so much junk in it and it's dirty as hell? I looked at one locally once that was like that and I offered the guy $600 less than he was asking. He looked offended and stated how the boat was worth more than that. So, I shot back with how it would take a full weekend to clean the inside, was the boat and buff it out. Call a detailer and ask what they'd charge. That was last summer and guess what, the boat still looks the same and is still for sale. Same price.

The only reason I found it was b/c the new owner was asking what it was on iboats.com.

Wonder what the difference tween the 2 hulls is. Besides the hatch. Hard to make out in the Conquest add but specs appear to read - 19' long with 90" beam. Same as Corinthian. Wonder why the difference in HP rating. Anybody got a better scan(s)?

I'd bet the lil galley/fridge thingy is aftermarket Chris. Doesn't appear in the add, or on list of options. Looks like both models had a flip-up seat in that location? Hmm.

Always reminds me of a big Sturgeon Doran:

A lil trivia: In addition to the Biblical connection. ie Pauls 2 letters to the Church in Corinth.

The term 'Corinthian' was later used to describe a "Fashionable man about town esp. a Sportsman."

LOL!
Well I'm glad I'm not the only one.

SO there was a Corinthian at the 2010 meet? How come I didnt see that?
