Well, I said it was a long shot. Has to be in Anacortes, preferably Cap Sante marina.
The reason is, I need to see if it will fit before I commit the non-returnable $6K to buy one. Dealer doesn't have one in stock, says I can order but then it's mine whether it fits or not. Measurements say it will fit, but there are several things to miss, rails, the crane, etc. Achilles (or a Highfield 290) are the only ones I can find with narrow enough beam. Almost all rubber boats are 5' 6" beam in this size, those two are 5'. Achilles is a bit bigger and better hull.
