23 power

I run an F250 on my "99 SeaCraft23. I think that if I was to repower, I would seriously consider an etec 300.

Since you mentioned the northeast, Gary Burdick in Ashaway, RI is a great Evinrude dealer. If I was going to have someone install an etec, he would be my choice.

leaking hatches

I am sure others have storage areas that get wet. It would be nice to leave some things on the boat and have them stay dry.
Has anyone solved this problem? I was going to try weatherstriping

What I want to know, is this, Can I scuff up the thin layer that is on there and get by with just bottom paint? Would a "99 SeaCraft23 be expected to absorb water or develop blisters?
