Re: Coosa
Couple of thoughts/questions,
Does the Coosa board actually absorb epoxy like a wood core does?
How much weight does the plywood core in a transom actually add over a coosa cored transom?

Re: Seabird
I have a 23' sitting in the yard for future resto (unless I should be so lucky to find a 23' SC project hull for low bucks... unlikely).
SeaBirds were good boats during their time, built in...

Re: Seacraft Title Question
Some states do not issue "titles" on boats, but just issue a registration card yearly.
I lived in MD and had my boats registered there... MD issues a title just like you would have on a car....

Re: Is this a Seacraft?
I have an older '23 Seabird sitting around for a restoration. I'm pretty sure the boat in your photos is an old 'Bird. They were built in Hialeah Florida, thought to be advanced for their time. They...

Re: Ceiling carpet for Tsunami
Cabela's sells various grades of marine carpet by the foot. It's the same stuff used in bass boats and on the decks of pontoon boats etc. Not sure if that's what you had in mind? They have several...

Re: It's about time!
Scott,
Congradulations... from a fellow project SeaBird owner! I have a '73 23 footer that was an I/O Cuddy model. I'm going to close the transom for a full floatation bracket and then interior...

Re: advice on suzuki outboard
Spraying oil into the cylinders is an old "mechanics trick" which helps the rings seal to improve the results on a compression check. For a true reading, don't do it. Also, allowing the engine to run...

Re: Value of 1975 center console
There's a big difference between "book value" and what one is willing to pay for it. Simple economics... supply and demand. These are desired boats. It's worth as much as someone is willing to pay...

Re: '76 20'cc in MD
I stand corrected on Mango... I can't see the bottom on the hull anyway- that's the true way to ID them. I've never noticed the 23' SeaCrafts having that much curvature in the hull sides at the...

Re: '76 20'cc in MD
I had to go back and look at more SeaCraft photos. They too seem to have a slight outward hull curvature at the transom. I've never picked up on that detail from the one's I've seen. I do not think...

Re: '76 20'cc in MD
"Mango" appears to be an old SeaBird hull or possibly a John Allmonds. If you notice the sides near the transom, there is a slight outward curvature to the hull. I've got an old '23 Bird that's going...
