Here are the specs off the main site on the 23 with a V drive. Would be interested to hear how it it is set up.

That has to be a sweet handling, super stable fishing platform. I'd jump on that. Got pics? I've never seen one. Good luck with the search, Fred.

I had one in a 26' silverton for a few years and it never gave me a problem. The boat was SLOW but very stable and you could almost hold a square dance in the cockpit! But, as I said, it was SLOW- 13-15 kt. cruise.

Keep in mind, it had a 10 1/2' beam and about a 23' water line, all powered by 225 HP Chrysler 318 CID. Apparently a bit faster with a 300 HP 350 CID crusader rig.
