Hey Bro, I believe quite strongly that Yacht Doctors are responsible for entire refurb of the '77 SeaCraft Seafari at our last gathering. FYI.

Vezo

The production boats are pretty well understood.
These are unicorns.

Frizzle,

No, I haven't had time time due to busy work and family schedules. Any spare time I do have I'm usually playing around on the prototype.

Best,

FT has a full scan of his hull and was kind enough to take some measurements
from my hull.

With his amazing knowledge and kind guidance, I hope to get her right.

Thanks Steve!!!

GFS,

It was a pleasure meeting up with you again.
YD may have had to put that much weight forward to make her float properly with those engines on a bracket.
Carl's the man with the amazing knowledge... I just ask questions and absorb what I'm able to comprehend. I'm looking forward to watching your project come together.

All the Best,
Steve

CG Shift with Heavy Engines

GFS & Flyingtime-
Regarding the twin Zukes on a bracket & relocation of fuel tanks, you might be interested in seeing my post of 9-24-16, Estimating CG Shift with Heavy Engines. The results of Bushwacker's ETEC moved to a bracket collaborated pretty well with this estimating tool.

These hulls are supposed to like weight aft.
The 150s weigh @750 and the bracket 200.

Trips back in the day were 900 on the transom.

With the 60 degree or more entry and skinny shoulders who knows.
I will be leaning heavily on the racehorses here and around the web.
