Whose boat?
I was in Merritt Island this morning, and I saw a 23' CC with a huge 30"-32" setback fiberglass flotation bracket, and twin 275 hp Mercury Verado's. Fighting Lady yellow hull with stainless T-top w/ maroon canvas, front opening walk-in center console and a maroon spray-dodger on the bow. No name on the hull.
It had a CSC "Classic 1976" sticker on the console. Whose boat is that? |
Re: Whose boat?
Love to see some pics of that!

Unfortunately, no camera at the time.

So after getting my breakfast, I parked nearby, and strolled over to look. There on the side of the console was the CSC "Classic 1976" decal. Except for a scum line on the hull, the boat was so clean it looked as if it had just been pulled off a showroom floor. Because of the CSC decal, I figured the owner would be easy to contact, and would post pics for all us SeaCraft porn addicts, and we could all slaver a bit. Then I thought, 550 hp on the back of a 23' CC and no bolsters, just a leaning post. "I wonder how fast it goes.... :D" After looking for a while, I drove away, wondering how fast my 20' Seafari would be with just ONE of those motors. C'mon, somebody's gotta know whose boat that is. |
Re: Whose boat?
Father Frank - Are you sure it wasn't the New 23TE or the 26MA with the "poser" CSC Decal?

Re: Whose boat?

Re: Whose boat?
Fr. Frank - did it have a euro transom? that would nail it down.... if it had a fiberglass bracket its not a new boat

Re: Whose boat?
Euro

Re: Whose boat?
I think I have seen that boat before. If it is, it is definitly a "new generation". The yellow and marooon is what I saw first....
I just can't imagine that much weight on the back. The CoG must be behind the leaning post. I have been on 31 contenders with twin 4 strokes, and they are pretty stern heavy needing wedges and tabs at anything less than 30 mph. |
Re: Whose boat?
Here is an actual water shot with the verados.......

Re: Whose boat?
that boat doesn't sit that bad at all... the red against the white bottom makes it seem worse... if it were all one color you wouldn't notice that much
