Moesly Seacraft 21 repower opinions

[McGillicuddy]

Bgreene,
Yeah outboards are sweet. I do like the etec 2.6 L for this ride but I don't think I have the funds or motivation to cut the transom and hang one. If the boat were more beat up, I'd probably give it a more serious look. Not off the table as I just came across some 2011 200's with around 400 hrs for $6500.

Sandlapper,
Appreciation of other boats is a passtime. Your 23 is a great boat, and in fact my first interest in Seacraft was spawned by a 23 Sceptre. I couldn't afford that one at the time, but I bought the first 20 Seafari I saw shortly thereafter. Eventually bought a Seavette, just to save it from the dump. Only sold it because I didn't have the heart to alter it, and the 21 was on its way.

Good luck with your 23 project!
