this launch is a 1957 Crisovitch built by Criscraft Prowler is number 1 of 5 ever built, the first sportsfisher Criscraft ever built. A court case ended the production of this model as rybovitch won the case and Criscraft were fined $1000,000 for each boat. Would love to find out more on this topic, Prowler is berthed in the Whangarei town basin.
