I've got a 23' SeaCraft (1978 Potter Hull) and and I am exploring/interested in trading down to a 18 CC. Currentlly I have a 23' Sceptre "project" that I'm planning on converting to a "Savage" or more likely now to a "CC". This boat had some damage done to it in Hurricane "Katrina" A good portion the damage has now been repaired. I have extensive photo documentation of the repairs done, with both before and after pictures available. I may continue this project to completion, but I am also considering trading it for a further along 18' CC project or completed 18'. I'm open to comments, suggestions, or trades.

This is a GREAT opportunity for someone to move up significantly in boat size if you are willing to put in the "sweat equity"

One to the major considerations in the potential change of direction, is that I have a very good condition and excellent running 23' now and really don't need two. A smaller 18' SeaCraft CC would probably serve my needs better.

The Good:

Exterior of the hull is in good condition, no barnicles or rash, never bottom painted, clean and straight

Many repairs have already been done.

All pieces and parts are there and accountable.

Includes a large, good condition center console (with a pristine condition original plexiglass windshield) from a later model SeaCraft (See picture below) Although alot of the accessory items have been removed. The windshield is not shown in the picture because it is being stored in my attic to protect it's perfect condition

Options are limitless, as you are starting with a fresh canvass to work on

Centrally located on east coast US -- Columbia, SC. (Center of State)

Reasonable distance transportation MAY be available on my trailer --- for the right deal.

The Bad:

Front cap and interliner have been removed to gain access to the bow of the boat for high quality repair. The two pieces will come with the boat if desired, although if converted to a Center console format they will not be necessary. Ask me why, I have a comprehensive plan.

The floor has some soft spots and probably needs to be replaced.

Windshield/top have been removed.

The unknown:

Not sure of the condition of the transom. It is NOT original, and has been redone sometime in the past with scuppers draining thru the back not straight down which is a plus.

Fuel tank is present and is original, condition is unknown.
