Default Re: 85 23' SeaCraft for sale

Hey there-

Trayder is right. I sell boats for a living and we will not take any in on trade that have Ficht engines. While I do not doubt that your engines are problem free....parts for those engines can be hard to find because OMC went bankrupt. The other problem is trying to resell a boat with them....most people in the boating community know to stay away from them.

My suggestion to you is take the engines off the boat and sell them to a commerical fisherman, outboard mechanic, or someone on ebay, etc...someone who wants them. Then, either sell just the hull or take the money from the sold fichts and put it toward a good used/rebuilt single outboard for the seacraft and then try and sell it again.

Good luck and let me know if you have any questions.
