Allied SeaBreeze
"I just had to submit the Allied Seabreeze cove stripe. The fwd end is not all that unique, but the aft "swallow tail" is quite distinctive." - Art Hall.
Allmand
Nappy Napolitano writes: "I remember the Allmand logo. It was one of the first small aft-cockpit aft-cabin sailboats."

Bristol
Bristol 38.8, version 2
"I was checking your website pictures of covestripes and noticed that the bow arrow is different than that for our Bristol 38.8. It may be that the difference is due to the 38.8 being the second generation." --Dave Belchamber
C&C
We thank Cuthbertson and Cassian, the C&C guys for making this star symbol easy to recognize and consistent from model to model.
Cape Dory
We apprecite little hints like CD right in the cove stripe also. We can take a hint!

Cherubini
A little cherub, a "cherubini," on a Cherubini 48. It is also on the trail board for the Cherubini 44. -Ben Stavis, Webmaster, Cherubini Yachts
Columbia
The Columbias usually had their logo somewhere on their boats. A big help for dockwalkers.

Attached are snapshots of my '77 E27 cove stripe including the logo on the stern portion. --Jerry Van Baren
Flicka
First built by Nor’Star, then (1977/78 & later) by Pacific Seacraft. Aft hull scroll (right) different design than forward scroll (left). --Sandy Wills

Heavenly Twin
Hinckley
"The Hinckley cove is interesting in that it is not just a graphic design. It depicts the Talaria, which, if you remember your classical mythology (and I'm sure you do!), are the small wings depicted on the ankles of gods. Hermes is usually shown with them. Henry Hinckley chose this image back in the 30's (I think) to connote swiftness, agility, and stamina." -- Morris Hancock.

Islander
Bless their souls. The folks at Islander made it easy on us. Look for the lacy arrowhead at the bow and the sailboat logo at the stern. They even tell us what size Islander we're looking at. Another blessing is in order.
Islander Freeport
Island Packet
You can often recognize the Island Packets by the creamy white they use for their boat paint. But not always. The little logo at the mid-section of this one was a good clue, though.
