New member. What About a New Seacraft 25?

[GetReel]

I will run off 25-45 miles in my 23' IF I feel the weather will hold and good water, signs or decent reports can be verified. Last year I was 40 out and came home in a 4-6' following sea with no problem only to burn up my shaft seal in the inlet, but made it in. So you never know. I would say if your gonna go with a 23'or 25' don't buy new and shop around. I love SeaCrafts, but I'm suspicious of the qaulity control in the new boats. If you want a rare 23' inboard version, which I have, there are unfurtunately alot for sale, and some have been sitting in NJ and close by for months. You could pick one up for alot less than you can restore one for$!!. I think Regs are great, but $100,000 or so for 26' CC with outboards? NFW. I'll get a 27' Albemarle with twin diesels for less and fish the deep!
