Columbia 31 Interior Pics?

TheWastedYears · #1 (**permalink**) 09-04-2008

Hi All,

Would anyone happen to have some interior pics of a Columbia 31? I may (or may not) buy my friend's boat, but first I wanted to get a feel for what the interior looked like in better days, and configurations that may have been used.

I emailed the owner of Columbia-Yachts.Com, but have yet to receive a response.

Thanks in advance.

I hate to tell you this, but Columbia Yachts closed their doors in 1979. The site you had Columbia-yachts.com is an owners group.

I know. Eric White is the owner of the site and founder of their owners' club. He has amassed a lot of info about the old Columbias, but I don't know if he maintains the site anymore. From the looks of it, I'd have to say he does not.

The C-31 was only made from '65 - '68, and less than 100 hulls were produced so I know finding pictures of the interiors will be nothing short of finding a needle in a stack of needles.

From the outside, they look a lot like a C-29, but I'm not sure how that carries over to the interior.
