Matty, is there any chance that you have the build sheet for HID: DNAC2042K495?

Thanks!

no history just that it is the 42 hull in the 95 model year certified in the fall of 94

Thanks. Can you tell from the ID if it's a classic or BH hull? It has a 502 with a BH drive and I'm trying to figure out which hull it is.

The exhaust tips are very high on a true BH the BH also has a rocker hull
The bezel on the tip is flat and very near the deck hull joint

With a rocker hull will it curve up at the transom or curve down?

The entire keel has a slight curve to it compared to a non-rocker hull . Sometimes it's very subtle . It's not really a case of it 'curving up' (or down) at the transom like it's very noticeable as in the case of hooks .

Thanks. I'm looking at a '96 with a 502 and a BH drive. It has the higher X-dimension (tips are at the top and the rings around them are flat cut at the top) and the seller claims it is a classic hull based on the HID #with the factory 502/BH option. I really don't want the BH hull but if it's a classic hull I'll go take a look at it.

rocker think of the shape of the feet of a rocking chair they did make BH hulls in standard classic color schemes beside the BH LE models
