Default Re: Soon to be new owner...have some questions

Rich,
I couldn't afford to restore an old boat. I needed financing. The 23 offered everything that my wife and I were looking for in that size range. I hope it doesn't come out as a lemon, but we'll see. Like I said earlier, the one at the boat show looked pretty nice...granted it probably has never seen the ocean. As soon as I get the boat, we will check all fittings, connections, thru hulls, etc... I'll keep posts on here about good/bad things that turn out with the boat.

Well, I talked with another member today who said he's been to the new plant and apparently their building one hell of a good boat now....Hopefully he'll chime in on this.
Unfortunatly they've ground the name and reputation in the dirt, and thats going to be a tough up hill battle to bring back.

Finster,
I'm glad to hear that.

BPS was really going out of their way with incentives to buy. The gift card and free sea tow. Maybe this is part of trying to turns things around...or just helping them make a sale.

Luis, I have a 2003 21' that I bought new less than 2 years ago. This is my 3rd Seacraft the others were a 1969 20' CC and a 1977 23' Sceptre. Obviously I love Seacrafts and was a little concerned about quality, etc. when I decided to buy new . I love my boat and have not had any major issues. The boat seems just as solid as the others. The only problem I have had is the paint on the aluminum frames under the console and the hatch doors in the stern. Seacraft is in the process of taking care of this. I have not heard of any major problems with the 20, 21, or the 23. Good luck with yours and I think you will love it.
