Default Re: 27' Moesly Flybridge to CC Conversion

Quote:
. . . But it's hard for me to be happy about this conversion... it looks like a great job and the workmanship is first class. Why do that to a classic hull? If you want a CC with classic seacraft ride in a 27, go get an albin or a silverhawk.

Maybe I am way off base, but I would have preferred to see that boat restored to it's original condition. Anyway, what do others think?
I agree Ken - there are thousands of CC's around but very few Moesly boats, especially the 27! It always hurts my head to see such a rare unique boat destroyed to convert into something that looks just like thousands of other boats out there. Kinda like converting a rare original GT-40 into a 1/4 mile dragster with a big slicks, a wing and wheelie bars on the back of it! I'm sure it would have been much cheaper to just go buy a Tracker 27 if you want a 27 CC! There have even been a couple of them for sale on this site recently. I think I've only seen about 3 flybridge 27's for sale in the last 10 years!
