Spotted this I563 on FB awhile back, up on the Atherton Tablelands, NQld
She may have flown under the search engine radar, (posted 22 weeks ago) as they call her "Endeavor 20", definitely an Investigator 563 in pics, sail number 73

You did well seeing that one Andrew. Given that not only is the description wrong but his lead photo is his rubber duckie tender. Not surprised he’s having trouble. Looks like single hinged hatch. Nice work on the timber galley unit although as ad says it’s now a “three berth”. It looks like the swing rudder is the original fg rudder modified with new swing top. Has boarding ladder and seems like a good boat from pics.

Yes Andrew, well spotted!
Sail number might just as easy be 78? I looked at Ray's list, he has a #73 that was in Vic at some stage, and #78 doesn't get a mention.
Anyway, another I563 lives on, even if it has been mis-classified along the way.

As the engineer said, "sure it works in practice, but will it work in theory?"

#78 is indeed in "The List".
Investigator's name is Trim and was last spotted in Bowen in 2022.

And the kick up up rudder is a match for #78.
Looks like a decent rudder set up too.
I must be missing a page when I downloaded your list Ray.
