Just joined the family
 

Just thought I'd share my purchase with everyone on here, site was very informative during my looking for an SC20. Found my 1974 SeaCraft CC in S. Carolina (I'm in Va) and drove down this past Thursday to pick it up. So far I'm extremely happy with it, spent a 12 hour day today going through and cleaning hatches and replacing some hatch hinges and what not. Hull is solid. The engine is an Evinrude 200 not sure as to the year yet (probably going to repower next spring depending on condition of engine), runs great but according to prev owner when he replaced the lower unit a newer model one was put on, which has a different length shift shaft and this is not allowing it to go into reverse. He was told that it can be replaced or grinded down to fit but he ran out of funds to invest in the boat. Taking it to get that looked at and to get a general bill of health on the engine Monday. Boat, trailer, engine all for $3000.

see you found the site

If it floats (and does anyone really doubt that), I think you scored ;)

Great buy! I had to do the same with the shift rod on mine. grind off 1/2" of the threaded end and with a high quality die, put another 1/2" of threads on the rod. A "cheapy" die won't cut stainless. Took about 2 hours including water pump replacement.

Sounds like a great purchase !

Nice job looks good

You can adjust those shift shafts, so you might luck out. I have one too, and if it's right, you can have it, just measure the oal of what you have (or what you need).

I wonder what combo's you have on there?

Cool deal on the new boat.
