Hello?---Is this CSC?.
 

Is this Classic SeaCraft? Have I found the place for all things SeaCraft?

In the last week, I have had no less than five (5) request for Proposals to restore SeaCraft's, plus we have an ongoing restore at the shop.

Sooo, my question was, where are all these request coming from?
And, I thought of this place, I have not been here in awhile.
What have I missed?

Is GFS still here? I know he got booted from some other boating site. :D


PS: Holy cr--, I need to redo my sig, those boats are GONE.

"Is GFS still here? I know he got booted from some other boating site"

Say what??? Not our king of the crazy!! I did not know there was a "classicslackerseacraft" site out there? I'm not keeping up with things like I should!

Love this guy, the steering wheel comments on thehulltruth.com website still cause me to crack up!

That was some unexpected marketing genius that happened.
All I was trying to say was the steering wheel in the pictures was not included in the sale, not that the boat would not have a steering wheel.
And, in true THT fashion, it got a life of it's own.

I have no doubt there is an increase of SeaCraft restores looking at new boat prices lately. Hell, I wish I could afford one of your restorations as you and your team do spectacular work. Maybe when you guys get caught up you can offer a reverse mortgage SeaCraft restore program. Considering our old sleds will continue to grow in value and we will die soon you can finance the restoration and take ownership after we pass through the Pearly Gates. :D

likewise!

This I know for a fact.
Any restores I have done for me personally, I have sold at a loss.
Yet, the person I have sold them to has made money when they resell.
Go figure.

Thank you'all for the compliments! :p

Sounds like you need to sell your boats with a steering wheel to get full value in order to make a profit. Or maybe that really fancy umbrella should go with the boat. :) Plus if I remember correctly there were a few rather attractive young ladies you should have used more in your advertisements. Just trying to be of help.

All joking aside, the Seacraft boats you have sold are beautiful and well done, unfortunately not everyone sees the beauty and compares it to a 2016 Nauticstar or some other boat that is selling for 50k but doesnt have near the quality or build that a Seacraft does.

True.
Everyone wants the quality and the toys, they just don't want to pay for it.
Almost to a "T", I have had to "cheapen" the boats up. Take off the Foo Foo.
Steering wheels (sentimental value), TUCCI Top, etc.
And almost to a "T", after purchase, they come back for the Foo Foo.
On the Contender I did, the new buyer went back with what I took off, granted smaller engines, but almost all the "other" stuff.
All that fancy stuff comes at a cost. There is a big difference between an Igloo cooler and a roll out Frigid Rigid.
All of the "little details" we do, cost money to do. People assume because that I am in the business it is free or cost a fraction of what it cost. Not so.

Anyway, thank you all for the compliments.
Kinda nice to not get beat up. Yet. :-))))

Seems like most of my boat moneys have been spent on power, electronics and duty specific items... and that has been plenty.

That's some good news . . . You need to call the people and do some digging/fishing for info. It sounds like you may have reached an audience (with money) that really appreciate these boats. Are they all 20Ft restores? or 23's too?

Currently we have a 20'.
Proposals are split, three of the 20's and three of 23's with the phone still ringing.
I haven't seen it this hot since the downturn.
Somebody know something I don't?:D

mr cavemanboy
then why u sell ?
make no cents to me :rolleyes:
have good day
sam

Hey, Spider Krab.
I kinda missed ur mug. There is another "site" where u wuld fit right in.:D

I out grew the boats, needed bigger.
Now I am bigger and thinking I need smaller. One day---. :p

Hark, he lives!

Hey Sandy, I think this is your alter ego on "the other site". :D

vincentdivincenzo

Where is my pointy hat?
Evidently, you have to have saved the approved proxy to access
the complaint box.

I didn`t know that.

Not Dan`s fault at all.
He is new there.
He was hoping to sell shirts n stuff.

If anyone should do that time,
it should be me.

I think I may have learned what a sock puppet is.

How do you legislate humor

Without Warner Bros, I would have little culture.

mr slacker, i hav no problum to go over to dat pos "tht" and
rheem dem a new hole.
u be 1 of us
day messin wit fire when day mess wit us csc folks
i pissed

Sandy,
I would LOVE to know what you put in your coffee. :D

You can almost judge the condition of the economy by the resale prices of restored secrafts.... Maybe were headed for an upswing

Only Cal State Berkley knows and they ain`t talking.

I`m sending some to I Bobbi.

Yes this is CSC........welcome back, brother from another mother! Coral Reefer go to a good home?? Next year maybe a Bahamas gathering! Moose was waiting for the CSC Armada to Grand Bahama, and they never showed:eek:. Time for that trawler and another 20SF to make the crossing??

My brother lived in Berkley, you two would understand each other.

CR sold, stayed local, then sold again, all owners love that boat, she was one of a kind.
"Konk" (orange boat) sold she is in Texas.
Makenzie E (trawler) sold, she is in the Panhandle and just survived Hermine.
Currently I have the new Makenzie E, aka PPQ (Pure Platinum Queen) , a Bluewater 52 and a Contender.
PPQ has a couple of Miami trips under her belt, Contender has numerous Bahamas trips.

That's all well and good, however on the the important question!!!! Do you still have the same attractive crew as before, or possibly a new crew just as nice?? :)

See post #10.

New crew.
Different bote(s).

You da man!!

Nice boat:D!

I think I met this guy Caymanboy once...boats and crew are always top notch...

strick

They didn't understand me in California either.

I`ve sent many folks your way.
No idea if they called you, or I just frightened them.

I'm coming out your way on the 11th.
Flying to SF, then driving to Santa Cruz.

Nice to hear from you.:)
