Jeff,
I have a 79 Sceptre. Do you have any parts that you want to sell? Hard top, seating, bolsters, cushions, etc? I removed the bow rail for anyone looking for a bow rail.
Thanks
Brooks Reid...

Hull Rattle

I'm restoring a 1979 Sceptre. The hull is in pretty good shape but has a bit of a rattle if you pound the port side. Has anyone tried to tackle fixing a rattle?

Does anyone know a source for the black plastic center window pulls/lock downs for a Seacraft Sceptre/Tsunami?

I'm wondering if anyone owned a Scepter or seen one that did not have stripes on deck. Possible my Scepter had the decks resurface at some point if all Seacrafts had striped decks. Anyone?

Trim Tabs on 20SF

What is the best choice for trim tabs for a 20SF? I know there must be a ton of information on trim tabs here but I can't find it. Any suggestions for install would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
