1976 Tsunami

[fdheld34]

Oops...got confused...boat is a 1974

I was finally able to take the Tsunami out today..I did not have anyone at the dock to take any pictures of the boat in the water. I did have plenty of Coors Light though...it was an awesome ride!!!!!!
Attached pictures of the boat including boat name...named after my son...he picked out the font!!!
Trailer will need new bunks and adjustment.
I ran 38 MPH at 5000 rpm with 1990 looper 225....think I will change props to 17 pitch...currently running 19 pitch..
some pictures.
Top is from Kenny

Looks great, Fred. Looks like a keeper

Looking good Fred! Nice bench seat. I have a 15 pitch prop. on my 96 225.

Very sweet Fred!!! Hate to be a pain, but you are going to need more than a bunk adjustment!! Looks like a new, full size trailer is in your future!! Good luck!!!

Nice rig Fred! Should be a good family boat you can use all the time instead of working on it!

SeaCraft hulls are thankfully stiff as hell because of the big glass stringers and heavy layup, but Don's right, supporting it like that is a good way to put a hook in the hull! Until you get a bigger trailer, I'd make sure the motor weight is resting on the skeg; maybe even put some jack stands or wood blocks under the transom when not in use!

BTW, didn't you have a Scepter with twin I/O's? Did you trade it for this one? I can't keep up with all your boat trades! Denny

Hey Denny..
first 23' that I can actually use.
I will support motor...and use my jack stands...looking into a trailer now.
The 23 with twin i/o's was sold a while back

Nice boat Fred! Lots of room for the Family in that one. I'm gonna hire you as my broker when I'm ready for my next Seacraft...I'll give you a 10% finders fee!!

Nice boat. Is a 1976 a Tsunami or a Sceptre? Nice big bench seat, is that OEM?

Agree on the trailer situation.

When you find your new trailer let me know... that one will be nice for my Seafari. Where do you guys find such clean trailers... You wouldn't believe the $#!+ you find in SD
