New SeaCraft owner
Just bought a '79 18 footer. I bought it from the original owner and the boat has not been in the water for several years. Two years ago he decided to get it ready to sell and had 70 West Marina in Morehead City go through the boat and motor to fix any problems. There were only a few minor items to be fixed. I have read some messages about the floors being replaced. The floor on both sides of the boat near the stern is flexible. The places are symetrical on both sides and it doesnt sound like there is wood rot underneath. I dont know if the there is even wood in the floors of these boats. Any one got any ideas or is this a characteristic of the boat. The seller (whom I know is being honest) told me thought it has always been like that. Anyone got any ideas or info on this. I took it out today on the lake for a test run and it did real well. The seller told me that if I wasnt completely satisfied, he would refund my money. I did have some water come in and understand all of the bilge and water comments. The boat is is really great shape and is alot more boat that the Boston Whaler Montauk I just sold to buy this one. Oh yeah, were there fuel tank options for this boat? He thought it was a 55 gal. the only specs I have found show a 30 gal tank. Anyway I would appreciate any feeback or comments. Thanks
