Very nice 23! I actually came close to buying this boat when I was down in Palm Beach last month. I just couldn't figure out trailering it back up north quick enough to make it happen. He did a hell of a job with that thing!

Congrats That boat was the best deal I have seen in a long time You probably picked it up for lass than the cost of that motor, the 2nd station and Furuno electronics are a bonus!

nice work!!

hi , i just picked up an 87 like yours. by any chance could you post some more pictures of your console? id like to see what that little hatch is on the port side of it as well. inside the console would be great. are there any pictures of the rebuild anywhere??? mine needs a floor for sure. im trying to get an idea on the best way to do it. thanks alot!

Port and Starboard sides of the cc have the hatches, Not to big about 2x1.5 ft you can squize in there enough to reach back side of electronics. That white box is the fresh water tank.

Is the front cooler custom or standard on this model? I have seen many with a big door instead.

That indirect lighting is great for night fishing.I did my last boat with blue LED.It kept me from using the speader lights as much.Thats one mod that's on the list for my Seafari.
Do you have any pictures of the steering station on the T-top?

When the boat was redone they only replaced the center decks above the fuel tank with new foam core decks (bolt in). The outside deck was in good shape, no soft spots and solid, stringers too. The boat was barn kept in GA for years he said, thats where the previous owner picked it up. Yes at some point the outside decks will need to be redone but I don't see that happening for decades. Even the transom was solid and dry when they raised it 5 in to match the 30in motor. The gelcoat is orig as well, compounding right now! minus the small scratches for a 24 yr boat.

Anyone know the best or easy way to hook up the throttle control for the upper station, cables already run to the console, terminated at the existing binicle, single yamaha binicle? Can I get a dual binicle shift and throttle(side by side) and Plug-n-play? The steering is hooked up and works great.

Also does anyone have a Furuno sounder bbff1 or the new dff1 (black box) they want to get rid of? I have a airmar thru-hull transducer waiting to be hooked up!
