Yes, your boat is a Sailfish. Still a great boat but not a Seacraft.

There was a short period of time from about 1990-1997 when there were no Seacrafts made to the best of my knowledge (which I admit is limited). Seacraft languished after 1989 and was revived from 1998-2009 only to be put back on the shelf when Tracker figured they were cannibalizing sales from their Mako line. If you do a search on NADA, you will see values available from 1971 to 1989 under Seacraft/Tracker (they consolidate them even though tracker did not buy Seacraft back in 71) and then a gap until the Seacraft name starts up again from 1998-2009.

Did you purchase this represented as a SeaCraft? What's the title say?

yes....Tracker also bought Silver King...my 1998 was the first year the newer 21 was introduced and made by Silver King...BUT its all SeaCraft....however when I insured mine from State Farm. my make model on the insurance policy states ,,,,,SeaCraft / Mako,,,,,even though no Makos were made in the Silver King PLant....Mako and SeaCraft were moved to a new plant in NC. I think around 2000..I have all the brochures for the newer models...SORRY FOR GOING OFF TOPIC OP...thats still a very nice boat

Alabama does not have titles to vessels.
My bill of sale and the old Alabama registration from the previous owner state SeaCraft.

Hopefully you did not pay too much for it because even thought the Sailfish is a great hull, it does not have the same cache and/or resale value. Matter of fact, when I bought my Sailfish, there was another couple of dude looking at it, once they realized it was not a Seacraft, they could not leave fast enough. Turned out, they were in the business of buying/selling boats
