Hey Terry I'm just downsizing while building my Financial Advising Business on Anna Maria Island. I hate to let her go, but I don't have time to do all the things I wanted to do on her. I plan on looking into a 18 or 20 like I used to have to keep it simple for the next year or 2.

I am supposed to pick up a 23' this weekend and this listing makes me think I am overpaying. $5500? Wow

When was the bracket put on and has the transom been done or is it the original.

Your not over paying, more than likely.

The bracket has been on for around 8 years. The transom is original. It only had an outdrive and NOT an outboard putting pressure on the transom from 79 to 2002. When the hole was filled in the transom there were no knees glassed in. The transom is due for a rebuild. The steering arms need replacing - heavy labor job. I have some interested parties, but no one has put down the deposit as of tonight.......

duck youre not overpaying, you never see 23ccs at these prices unless they are mostly apart. If youre talking about the 23 in Wilmington that looks like a nice deal

Ryan is correct, the boat needs work. "Mostly apart" usually does apply. This boat is not apart, but it does need a transom and steering arms to start. This is a great 23SF that only 5 or 6 boats were built like. Look it up. If you are new to this site, you may need to read some old posts so that you are not blindly going into buying a SC that is 32 years old and needs work. There has been more than 1 guy on this site that thought he was buying a 2005 Tracker SeaCraft when he bought his low cost classic

I seriously though this was a misprint . . . 15,500 You will never see a deal like this again on a 23. In the 10 years I have been following seacraft's I have never seen a 23CC with power priced this low.
