SC 23 CC Knockoff ? ... Interesting transom !
 

I have been meaning to post these pictures since I took them last March in Hopetown, Abacos/Bahamas. What drew my attention to this boat was the transom. It accomplishes the safety of a closed transom and the setback of a bracket, but I think it has a more streamlined look than a bolt-on type 30" bracket. Furthermore, I don't think this bracket/splashwell is 30", but it appears to accommodate the tilted V6 easily (I wish I had measured ! ... Is 30" really necessary ?). For the CSI/Horatio among you who will investigate this criminal activity (Seacraft counterfeiting) and report back on who made this knockoff, I wrote down the first part of the HID # (It began with OPM2332****). Here are the photos ... I hope I posted them properly.

I have seen a couple of those boats in south florida. I believe that it might be an ocean pro or something along those lines.

There is one in Key West. I think it is owned by Sunset Key. It sits out on the cruiseships dock.

I had no idea it was anything other than a mod. SeaCraft but from these pic.s it does look like another knock off.

Wow . . . I really like that transom design.

Guy has (had) an OMC dealership in Pompano in an old Quonset Hut off Sample Road just east of dixie. He splashed the mold from the 23, then took a mold off the 24' Intrepid transom and pieced it together to make his cap and hull mold. its a 3 piece boat and he did a decent console mold as well. most boats he rigged had 225 johnson 2-s. this goes back 6-7 years when he was putting out 5-6 boats a year. solid glass, nothing too high-tech, stringers were wood unless you spec'd and paid up. I have forgotten the name he marketed them under...
