Re: BlueFin Tuna Fishing on a 23 SeaCraft
Fantastic photos of a great day. Photos like these are a real morale booster. Thanks.
Incidentally, with the load on board and all the running you did, how much fuel did you go through?
But why...

Re: it will help if you can't count...
Guys, I love this forum, the community, and the openess everyone exhibits. (Vezo, you're so right, 14 PBRs a day can take over a guy's life but it is really so easy to quit once you get scared.)...

Re: Solid pilothouse design
Nice thread on pilot houses. The Maine Boat Building Show in March in Portland might be a source of good ideas and contacts, etc. Nice people, low key atmosphere, like no other boat show in the world...

Re: Solid pilothouse design
You know, there was a guy on the Cape, Bob Reynolds, that built a nice commercial center console for a number of years in Chatham or Orleans called the FibFab. Some had small pilot houses for the...

Re: Solid pilothouse design
I've seen some of these on center consoles in ME and they look sharp. I think you could put a "West Coast" windshield (the bottom is tilted in) on it to cut down on glare. You would still have room...

Re: My 23
Fantastic looking boat. Really nice. Could you give us an equipment list (maybe even with the rationale for each) and tell us what you did to the hull?

Bottoms Up
Just got back from a trip to downeast Me. I checked out center console hull designs as I headed up Rt. 1 and found it interesting. Like lots of people on Cape Cod and further south, recreational...

Re: Self-Bailing Deck Question
As you can tell, I'm new to the forum and Seacraft. So, let me ask, what ever happened to old fashioned scuppers in the stern? You know, those nice rectangular holes in the stern that get rid of all...

Re: What trim tabs for 1977 23' CC?
Capt__Chuck, great photo and great boat. You mentioned having transom work done. I notice a lot of SC owners have put in solid transoms with a bracket. If you had a "soft" open transom could you get...

Fuel TankCoating
I think I read on another forum recently (ClassicMako.com?) that in replacing fuel tanks you should coat the alum tank with "cold tar epoxy". While I don't know what that is (and wouldn't know where...

Re: Repair/Restoration Costs vs. Benefits
Thanks for the thoughts. In an effort to keep the cost down and yet speed up the work, what about using a body shop for some of the work? Would they be less expensive yet more professional than a...

Repair/Restoration Costs vs. Benefits
I'm a newbie here so let me begin by apologizing for anything that might sound foolish. The SC 23 is a fantastic hull. Yet when I read the forums here I am struck by two thigs. Lots of guys here are...

Re: 1979 23 ft. Seacraft for sale (Pictures Added)
OK, everybody agrees this is a great boat at a fair price (althoug 690 hours on a two cycle engine concerns me). But is not selling. So, here is an idea: I'll go into it 50/50 with a guy in FL. Let...
