Thank for the warm welcome guys!

Workinprogress, When I got the courage to knock on the door to ask wether the Seacraft was for sale, he said what Seacraft. He then got the title read it and said how did you know. I said look at the hull, it's a unique design if you look closely. Don't think he understood what was sitting there all this time. He has probably a dozen boats scattered in that yard, most are hydrofoils. Think he's one of the go to mechanics for that type engine in the area.

Do you allow Parker's at your gatherings? Got an 18 cc so I'm still on the water....:D

We allow Slackers, and you do have a SC.

I knew it could had fairly easily if someone wanted it and it wasn't really his thing. I was always surprised it sat there that long on the corner of such a well traveled road. Then again when people acquire a lot of "stuff" in their yard it all kinda blends together, lol.

I will put you on the contact list for the summer SeaCraft get together ,just in case you miss the post on here....

Great! Thanks Joe looking forward to.

Making progress on my 20. Removed fuel tank (using the prescribed power washer method on the foam). Access to the peat moss transom. Looks like I'll need to recore the at least some of the cap.

Oh, one more thing, the search function on this site is like a Seacraft encyclopedia. Gotta question, the answer is here somewhere....

transom complete
 

Haven't updated this thread for a while and thought I'd show progress and some close ups of the layout.

Looking good..its going to look like Bill Potter's personal Overnighter...
are you planning on going with a hermco bracket too?
Fred

Fred, Yes I will be ordering a Hermco bracket,very soon I think. Currently trying to figure out how to reconstruct the stern end of the cockpit. Including the bracket and reroute of the scuppers out the transom. I've learned that ya have to plan three steps out so that ya don't screwup the next step. Makes for slow going. Wish I could get a few more pictures of Bill Potters boat.
