Re: wanted 23cc
MacG,
Thanks for the note. I was pretty excited about the hull; it needs a lot of work but in a good way. The trailer doesn't have brakes, so I might have to let it go. If I am going to put the amount of work and time into the hull that I plan to, I won't need a trailer for few years anyway! So anyone who needs a duelly with no brakes and 2 inch ball, drop me a line!
The road trips are great, but I agree about gas (diesel is at $4 now), and I wouldn't trust my truck to pull a 23 for 200 miles, let alone up the east coast. I was just down in FL last weekend, and I completely agree that it is a different game down there. Does anyone know if the extra sun effects the gelcoat/glass in an appreciable way?
No matter where you end up getting it, it's still a classic seacraft, and the whole process is going to be a blast. I have to be honest, there is no way I would have even contemplated this project without the website; strick's 20, that great 23 with new decks in SC, etc (and that's only the first 2 builds I have read closely!).

best,
