New Boat
 
I pulled the trigger on a new boat last month. This will be it for a while. Wife hasn't even seen it yet, but I'm pretty sure she like the 1972 Safari.

I was just over at v20.com, decided to see what was happening over here and, lo and behold, T's got a new boat project. :cool: Looks like she has lots of life left in her. Best of luck with the restore.

I've had the SeaCraft out twice now and love it. She's a little wet in the Chesapeake chop (1'-2' and tight are typical conditions), but other than that, it's a capable little boat. My previous boats have been anemic, so it's taking me a little time to get used to lots of power in a smallish package. Anyways, I look forward to seeing the progress on the Seafari.

The 50 caliper air horn gives it a nice touch. :D
Good luck with the wife. Oh yeah, and the boat.
See ya, Ken

Can't wait to see the bracket and the performance #'s!!
Let's put this bracket on a 20' boat to rest.

Tell Strick to make a few, others may be interested .... :D

I'm just excited to be able to spend the night on the boat, walk out the cabin door and be fishing. It's a long drive to the ocean (60miles for me) and having the cabin is going to be great!!
