Dyer 29 verses Ellis 28?

What’s the compass course to Flathead? Pretty boat!

Beautiful Dyer, I love the short hardtop models. I’m glad you found your boat.

I also enjoyed re reading a captain Larry post... I miss his wisdom.

Yes me too.
This is interesting there is a 75 wasque in our marina here in Montana. something about me and Dyers and Wasques. Probably the only two on in the entire north west.

Thanks for posting that Wasque, I’m obviously partial to them. That looks like a long cabin model, but with an addition to the trunk cabin to get more headroom.

Also, I don’t see a molded in spray rail.... maybe an early ‘70s hull?

Cant see the pictures due to the 3rd party hosting.

Here's my 1966,29 Dyer with the 6" step.Bare bones for tuna fishing,someone extended the hard top along the way.........................................

About 15 yrs ago I took a looksee at a 28 Ellis FB that was on a dock up in the Casco Bay area.
IMO the 28 Ellis is one of the smallest 28 DEs manufactured. Never been on one....just seemed small to me, narrow.
