Re: The Last Sceptre
Rhody,
Duuuhhhhhh, I was looking at the title of my other boat,
The SeaCraft is a 88, and that is the latest model Sceptre
I have seen too date.
The title says 88, and it has a tracker ensignia on the dash gauges.
The hull Id ends with ....88, so I am to assume it is a 1988 model.
Who knows, it's a great boat. I have replaced all the fittings, hoses,
and I'm starting on the electrical, so it should be better than new when
done. Those are the only things that I have seen that degraded in
the product line over the years. I was out on a 89 cobia 231 yesterday,
and that was and is a great boat too. The fittings and rigging were
all original, and it is still looking and working great. Personally, I
think the mid 80's cobias and seacrafts were some of the best built
boats ever in this size, and are great values if you can find one with
a fresh engine on it. 10-20K for a boat that would sell for 50-70 now.
