Post 1980 Seacrafts

[Blue_Heron]

The early '80s 23' boats were made by CSY, the 20s were made by Seacraft Industries. I've heard CSY used Potter's molds.

I have an '83 20SF. At 20'-4", it is 8" longer than a Potter 20 SF. It has a very slight hook in the rear of the hull, and I think that makes it a little slower than a Potter 20 SF with the same horsepower, but the ride is Seacraft all the way. I don't know if the hook is unique to my hull, or typical of all the Seacraft Industries 20 SFs. It's slight enough that you need a 4' straight edge to see it. Other than that, I would say the quality is similar to a Potter. The hook, if typical, may have been introduced intentionally to keep the bow down at higher speeds. Just a guess.
