Here's some info about the popularity of one Anchor Bay Boat as compared to another.

LS Chesapeake - 21
LS Huron - 15
LS Portsmouth - 12
Skipjack Nancy - 11
Motor Yacht Kim - 9
LS Columbia - 9
Tugboat Toledo - 9
Sardine Carrier Lori - 8
USCG 44' Lifeboat (case) - 8
USCG 110' Cutter - 6
USCG 44' Lifeboat (no case) - 5
Purse Seiner Tori Dawn - 4
USCG Utility Boat - 4
Rigid Hull Inflatable - 4

A reasonable and prudent person would surmise, from this small sampling of CF members, that the most popular Anchor Bay Boats are the Lightships that have their name spelt out in big letters on the side of their hull: LS Chesapeake, LS Huron, and the LS Portsmouth.

The Skipjack Nancy (sailboat) also appears to be popular as compared to the other boats.

I would have thought the USCG boats would have been more popular because we have many ex-Coasties in our group. Surprisingly, the most popular was the 44' USCG Lifeboat with the glass case. It received more votes than the USCG boats without the case that were much cheaper to purchase.

35 people voted so far in this particular poll. 11 votes were cast as "I do not own any AB's." Maybe the majority of AB Collectors don't visit the CF. Someone out there keeps buying them or Harbour Lights wouldn't be making them anymore.
