James,
Hey, I recognize that boat. When you are done and that boat in the water you are going to be amazed.
I think that you know that I replaced that boat with another 23 (this one).

your boat is the ultimate beast. I used to take that boat in 4 to 7 foot seas and any newbie on the boat would be amazed by the ride. My new SeaCraft does not ride nearly as well (yet). I hope to fix that my getting the engines raised.
Best of luck.
Peter
