Any shots of the interior including inside the cabin?

Re: RARE 23' straight inboard -center console SAVA
 

I think it should mirror that of a Sceptre / Tsunami?

Re: RARE 23' straight inboard -center console SAVA
 

Yes it's a Tsunami with no windshield. This is definatley a rare boat, however there is another one for sale that some of us know of, and it's an inboard also. So you are looking for $12,500 for the hull only, Engine is shot and the trailer can be bought extra?

Re: RARE 23' straight inboard -center console SAVA
 

Thanks guys. As you know Trayder I'm always looking for the perfect boat for my needs. Do you think you could sleep two adults and two small children in there?
Probably not.

Re: RARE 23' straight inboard -center console SAVA
 

I am sure you could sleep all 4 of ya, just not all at the same time.

You'll need a Seavette for that. ;) Nah it's hard to get fishibility and accommodations out of a 23' boat. It all goes back to my "4 boat theory", and wives love that theory....NOT! :D

There's an IB Savage here by me. It's in great shape too. The guy wouldn't sell it for the world.

I love the Seavette. I'm waiting for you and Lost2a6 to finish yours so I can get ideas. My Whitewater is very close to the seavette design. this pic is only about half of the cabin. The seavette is fancier though. :D

That's funny! I told Steve (Lost2a6) the same thing.

Not a day goes by that I don't wish it was done. My problem is, this is the only time of year when I have time to work on it, and I'm SOL for a place to work on it inside....

My brother's building a bigazz garage in the spring, and he's already well aware of his first occupant. :D

Hi,
It does resemble a Tsunami but the motor is in the center under a center console . It has a Bimini top and some canvas covers.., would look better with a T-top. Not an I/O with the motor in the rear. I am in Florida for the winter but the boat is in Virginia with a friend and it could be seen at any time. I will try and get some more pictures... Thank you , As for the price I guess the market will tell me how low I will have to go , I will consider all offers but it will be hard to compare as there are so few like this one.

As far as the trailer goes I had it built by Loadmaster , I paid $3,250. plus tax glad to show you the original invoice ) Bought it , had the storage place put the boat on it with a fork lift then drove it from Florida to Virgina to work on it in the summer. So the trailer has 900 miles on it. Bought an older house and my wife thinks I need to be working on it , not the boat. Go figure ??? Any other questions I will be happy to answer.
