Re: Seacrafts sink?
Everything everyone else has already said ... If someone only said to you they are "sinkers" they were nice.....I told one of the sales guys that I had been dealing prior to getting my boat that I had bought a SeaCraft....his response was "Oh you bought a SinkCraft" ... He was just jealous [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img]
I personally know of one that went down at the dock because of dead batteries/loss of bilge pumps. Rainwater ended up in the bilge due to the hatches not being sealed and thus draining to the bilge, which eventually lead to the battery drain. Then the boat got so heavy the scuppers let water onto the deck, eventually filled the bilge and to the bottom she went. Naturally this one could have been avoided.
I think Steve's boat may have gone under, prior to his ownership, due to failure of the thru-hull drain in the box under the casting platform.
