Re: Regulator to SeaCraft

"1979 Potter 23 SF 15,900" this is the thread name for deke's boat in the forsale ads. If I wasnt in the middle of redoing my 18sf I would buy this baby. It is sweet! He has reduced the price a bunch.

Tonight we got the top cut out and mounted in place on the transom box. I also got the gas tank back in the coffin and sitting in the boat. I think we are going to wait to glass the coffin into place...

Re: 1974 23 CC - project

With your 28" setback, how high above the keel do you have it mounted now that you moved it down. I am putting a bracket on mine and just want to make sure before I go to much further with the build....
