take a pic and post it. never heard of them, but not in SoFl. I think the patents were still in effect back then right so I doubt it is an exact copy like some of them today-sailfish,albin marine 26,etc.

Hallmark was slightly different. I believe it used the vertical chine like the SeaCraft, but was laid out more like the Continental/Barcone.
I know both Continental and Hallmark made a 20'4" hull that looked almost exactly like the 20' Seafari, with a slightly modified hull bottom. Vertical Chine variable deadrise hull, but with only two planing surfaces on each side.

That must be what I see every day on my way to work here in NJ. There is a boat on blocks in someone's yard that is identical to a 20 seafari, but the bottom obviously isn't a seacraft. It has two strakes and isn't as deep of a vee.
