Recently acquired by the Queensland Air Museum. They are believed to have been manufactured by EDO. There is evidence of a data plate topside aft of the mooring cleat but unfortunately both plates have been removed. Dimensions are:
Length 17ft 0in
Max Width 32in
Max Height 24in

Many thanks for the response. I sent the images to Kenmore Aviation but nil response as yet. I found an exploded view of the 44-2425 on the Kenmore website and although they are very similar there are subtle differences. This drawing doesn’t have any dimensions. Do you have any other dimensions for the 44-2425?
They mostly mention “overall length” – that means with bumper but without water rudder. And you’re right – 2425 had sister keelsons – that’s different.
Just found the dimensions:
Length 17′
Width 29”
Height 26”
C 5 (five compartments) guess yours has 7
edit: the very common 2000 has a nearly flat underside (only one sister keelson near the step) and 7 compartments – but has an overall lenght of 16 ft.

Wieesso will be along in a minute with the answer! 😉
As I posted in another forum 😉 it’s definitely EDO – but the exact type is difficult to point to, 17′ was the 44-2425, but this only a guess…
edit: Strange is the total flat front underside without any sister keelsons
