This is a production boat, and there are not to many around. I have a 1988 and she is a great boat. The cuddy is nice for locking thing up and resting on a long day. I will be adding a hard top one day and I will give you a call.

Tony- I have noticed the 23' walk a few times on Boat Trader and it they look great. The prices are much lower than a CC, which is nice. How long have you owned your boat and what added value does the "walk" give you. I like the idea of some shelter, being off shore 70 miles or so [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] .

Thank for the info Tony. I like the lines of the 23' WA. It seems that you have more flexibility with your setup on a long trip. What is your power setup?

Snookerd, I made a mistake in the year its a 1986 with 1988 twin Mariner 135's. I also have trim tabs and they help get the bow down with the extra weight on the stern with the twins.

I saw one about 12 days ago in the Florida Keys looks like they have just enough room up front to put some extra stuff in and it would be easier to get to the bow. I like the CC best.

I support the one boat theory but using it 4 times more often.

Its just a matter of preference. I fished a 1979 23cc that a friend ownes and the performance is the same, except on my boat there is more fishing room in the stern, and I can still fish around the boat if need be. Like I said Its just a matter of preference.

Marc,

I'm well, thanks. Actually, you are are classic example of the 4 boat theory. A zoomer, a fisher, an offshore and a cruiser. Perfect. Welcome to the club!

Fellowship,

Good one! I believe in the one boat theory too. It's kinda ironic that you'll put more hours on one boat that all 4 put together. Trust me, I know...

Hey Otto, 4 boat theory, now I get it! Thanks Marc

Snookerd, This is my 6th. season with my boat. I had a 25' Mako cc 15 years ago that I loved, but storage was a pain. On this boat you have the cuddy for storage, rest and porta potty. In you case 70 miles off fuel could be a problem, because there is only 115 gallons. I fish 30 to 40 miles off and no problem drifting but if I troll I take a portable 28 gallon tank. She is a great ride better then my mako. I did have to do alot of electrical work and plumbing. (factory cheap)

I just wandered into this board today, so just had to register since I do own a 1989 SeaCraft 23 WA Tracker. The transon was cut for twins but only put a single 200 Mercury on it and goes great. I have the only one here in this area and get a lot of compliments on it.
I had a custom top made for it since I fish in the winter here in the SanJuan Islands and we do get more than our share of rain and wind. Just put on my Mustang suit and go.
