Re: 1988 23 ft Seacraft Tracker
Capt Tim,
I have an 88 version 23' sceptre with a 250 merc efi. I really like the boat alot. They don't command as much respect/price as the Center Consoles, but they have the same hull. As far as ride, you are further forward in the cockpit than you are in the CC model when driving. You can probably run a little faster in the CC since you are further back. I looked at the Walkaround models, and although you get more protection, the cockpit was too cramped for my style. As far as construction in the 88/89 models, I don't know of any problems. Rigging is suspect, and the wiring is probably shot or been replaced. It has the typical old seacraft problems that are pretty well documented on this site.
If you have any further questions, post back, or give me a call, and I might be able to help you out. Personally, I think these boats are a great value compared to some of the more inflated CC models.
