Your second favorite boat under 28'
 

Borrowed from a thread from classicwhaler.com, if you had to buy a boat under 28' OTHER than a SeaCraft, what would it be. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

For me, this boat simple looks like what a 27 foot SeaCraft SHOULD look like. Built with vacuum bagging and kevlar, it only weighs a mere 100 pounds than my 1978 (#2650) CC. A 100k price tag is a little excessive but not too crazy in todays market.

That is a nice boat ..... I don’t know the status but in an earlier thread (off topic ??) that 27 came up and someone mentioned that Hell's Bay was having a bit of financial trouble .... Too bad if its true and hope someone bails them out as that is a pretty boat

Would love to take a ride on one of them, as I'm curious to the ride vs. hull weight and how well it would perform in some real slop

Cost .... as Briguy says for a 27 with motors and a trailer ...that too aint bad in today’s wacko out of control market [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

Scott & Bri,

I saw the Hell's Bay at the Miami show. She jumps right out at you like a long legged blond bombshell. You can't wait to walk up to her and gawk.
