Floatation Bracket...Build or Buy?

[FELLOW-SHIP]

Looks like a great plan to me, I really like it. As for making your own Bracket Strick made his and it came out looking really good my guess you could make your own bracket for approx $500 + Beer compared to buying one for $3,500 ready to go. After you do your project my guess is that your boat will be the Best Off Shore SeaCraft design out there especially for those long trips you go on. I have always thought that the 25 should have been a 27, 28’ with that 8 ½’ beam you got. A two motor long range boat that is truly TRAILER ABLE. Ya the 32 is a long range boat all right but I sure would not want to Trailer it every weekend. I have thought on occasion about putting a bracket on my 23’ just to put 2 motors on her to get a boat that has a little more range on it, but then I keep coming back to no It’s Still Just 23’. If I want a long range boat I really need to go to a longer boat like 27-31” to get what I need for that type of range.
