Anyone ever seen one of these without a windshield? Curious as to what it would look like with no windshield and a nice hardtop...

Ya his rebuild is awesome, been following for a while. I guess I was hoping somebody had pictures of one with a nice hardtop and maybe an eisenglass enclosure.

That was quick. Guy knows a good boat when he sees one. What are your plans for the beast? I am very curious to know how the boat handles with twins on her transom. Will you be running it in the same configuration?

Strick

77SceptreOB 03-10-2012 10:38 AM

I figured that boat would not last long, that was a DEAL!! Enjoy your new toy.

Phil,

I'd have similar questions for the owner. Although those are probably some of the lightest motors available for that application, I notice that they have Doelfins installed, so I wonder if low speed planning was a problem?! Maybe not an issue, since with that much deadrise that boat doesn't NEED to slow down for much, at least in terms of wave heights! If it doesn't already have them, 4 blade props would be a good addition.

Connor has indicated that his I/O Seafari 25 likes more weight up front, and outboards on a bracket will move CG in the opposite direction. Maybe adding a rubber ballast tank in the bow like Moesly planned to have in that boat would be a good addition. Might be worth trying to contact Big Fluke for his opinion. He's a naval architect that has run a lot of tests on the effects of CG position on Seafari 25 hull's ride and handling. He hasn't posted here in a long time, but maybe Strick or Island Trader would have contact information for him. Denny

Thanks for buying this..... I was having stupid thoughts going through my head.

Blue_Heron 03-10-2012 12:41 PM

Welcome to the club, Phil. The few, the proud... Not too many Seafari 25 owners here, or anywhere else for that matter.

Let us know how she handles with those twin outboards. Bushwacker makes some good points about CG. Bigfluke says they tend to go airborne in a sea if the CG is too far aft.

bilgerat 03-10-2012 02:11 PM

thanks Yall, Im going to keep her in the current set up for now, Ill keep yall updated on how she performs when I get her going.Im going to use her here on Lake Lanier north of ATL. for the most part with a once or twice a year trip to the coast . And once I get all My junk loaded onboard Ill have pleny of weight in the cabin!

cdavisdb 03-10-2012 03:55 PM

Welcome indeed Phil. You are gonna love this one. 25 owners are especially high on their boats, for good reason.

I've enjoyed your posts on Old Yeller and look forward to your experience with the 25. If I remember right, Lake Lanier can develop a pretty nasty, square wave chop, very wet in most boats. You will be astonished at how dry the 25 is. Not shabby in much bigger stuff too.

Yea, we call it the Atlanta ocean, not uncommon to have 6' swells going it 6 different directions!!!Way too many 40'+ boats running wide open .
