SWEET DAISY! That thing is NICE 8o
They just keep getting better. I guess the years
of accumulated information on CSC are reflected in
every new (old) Seacraft that we see here.
I'm guessing that Wildfire did the work? Who built
your top? That is one sweet T-top. Anyway, congrats!
You have the sweetest I have seen yet.

Riffraff,
Yes, thats difinitely one sweet boat. A couple questions if you dont mind. Did you raise the floor? and How do the scuppers work with that 200 hp yamaha? Also do you have any fuel burn numbers yet. Thanks -Will

Thanks guys for the feedback. I bought the hull in July from a guy in Michigan, drove 8 hrs to Charleston WV to meet him and pick it up. I did not want the 200 merc (not sure what yr)that was on th boat, so he kept it. I stripped everything out of the boat(hardware, console, wiring, etc). The transom was soft, but the floor was solid so I left it. G Crafts Marine in Awendaw SC did the fiberglass and paint work, we raised the transom 5 inches and raised the boxes in the corners of the transom. I rigged and wired everything. The console and leaning post came from Birdsall and the TTop was built by Carolina Custom Rigging in Mt Pleasant. We filled the original scuppers and put the drains in the transom and used the rabud sea scuppers, they work great. We also added the spray rails. I just finished about a week ago.

Here is what it looked like before:

Here is what the transom looks like in the water, you can see that the water line is just below my scuppers. I added the rabuds later. I got all of my ideas from this website!! Thanks to all you guys who posted great info. I could not have done it without this site as a reference.
Oh yeah, It tops out at about 53 on the GPS and I get about 3.5mpg at cruise (32).

Pretty work! Greatlooking boat. Like the SS rub rail and the spray rails. Are they from Smart Rail? What color is the hull? Thats a boat to be proud of.
