Frizz,
Ya, after watching you go crazy with the Sceptre, i mean i know you got some serious hours into that ride and it looks amazing.
I am hoping the Seafari has enough weight forward that a 200 etec on a bracket fits perfect. When i get a little closer... (have to find the right seafari) I am looking now, I will run a few things past Denny and get some feedback.
Curious if a larger in floor tank would help a little on balance. I have seen some pictures of Seafari and Sceptre boats all 20"s with big motors but all under 430 lbs.. that look to be balanced perfect sitting in the water.
However there are a few sitting out there with big 4 strokes that the ass looks like its going to drown. I know Strick has a 140 zuki on his sceptre and i thought that engine was arouond 410 or 420 if i remember right. I can't believe that 20 lbs give or take will make any difference.
I did...because i know you're a merc nut, check out the 175 pro xs and Eds Marine has a mongo sale about 11k out the door. But i think i got my mind set on a Bracketed 20 Seafari with a 200 Etec.
Keep us posted here... and for what its worth.... I love the idea of the Chopped down windshield on your Sceptre. That looked Bad Ass to the Bone!
