18 sold.....NOW FOR A 20!!!! Started today!!
 

So someone wanted my 76 18sf more than I did so I let her go down the road and make another family happy! Now I'm excited to jump on a 20SF and get her ship shape again!! This one doesn't need nearly as much work as my 18 did, but I'm still excited to see the results!! Planning on have paint and repairs done next week then going to start rigging! Going with awl grip fighting lady yellow hull sides and console, Kingston gray boot stripe, Brite white topside with Kingston gray non skid.... SHOULD SET HER OFF!!! Will keep everyone posted as I move along. Thanks!

Why do "tracker" seacrafts get a bad rap?
 

I just finished a 76 "potter" now starting my 86 "tracker" SC 20. From what I'm seeing, the trackers were made much better than the potters! Thicker glass, cleaner fit and finish, way more floatation, ZERO FLEX in hullsides where as my 76 had a TON of flex to it, better consoles, better more spacious rigging tubes, and way better job of sealing in wood on hatch lids..... So why the bad rap on trackers? Anyone??

Bye bye 18....

You just finished that 18!!! They must have wanted her pretty bad. Good for you.

I'm looking forward to seeing what you do with the 20.

Ha ha...
 

Yea, everything's for sale.....at a certain price. That 18 was SWEET, but I am anxious to do this 20. I guess next will be a 23...HA

It's all good...
 

This is a Potter based site, so I certainly would not indicate that there is any negative comparison to a Tracker built boat. I think there is a big "romance" factor, much like the Moesly built boats. Having rebuild all three, I have no preference, as I, and all others have stripped them down and made them their own.

At the end of the day, i think we all celebrate the terrific designs and efforts that Carl Moesly and Bill Potter that worked hard to bring these terrific boats to those of us that appreciate them. Tracker? - well, they built some decent boats too. I love my '89 23 CC almost as much as the '70 20 CC and '67 19 Bowrider. Just glad to be in the game.

congrats Justin ... Im riding on the next one though !
