Looks Like An Ogier Hydro from Canada to Me

I did a Google search for Ogier Hydro and came up with the above. Seems Orgier also sold plans because the early Marcel Bellvue boats were Orgiers. It could have been that he had just seen them when he lived in Canada!
Marcel Bellville Was In Santa Ana, California, Now In Newport Richey, Florida
I wish you'd post the plans on BRF. Marcel built a ton of boats, really. I don't know how many, but he change the Ogiers along the way.

Bakersfield, March 1969: Fred hauenstein, Jr. and a Marcel Belleville, "Bell Craft"
Not a good picture, It's Freddy with the "Muffel" on his Konig, C-186. This think his steering pulley broke in the first turn and he totaled this boat. Marcel built him another one, though. "Orange" deck called "The Orange Blossom Special" .
Looks somewhat like an Ogier! This boat was 12"6" om 13 feet long. I borowed Norm Weiss's Bell Craft one time, put my "D" Konig on it and "HID" behind that big cowling, that boat smoked. If I had not already paid Ted May to build me a boat, I would have order a Bell Craft.
