Scott,

Congratulations!! I'm sure you'll love it. Nice looking boat. Did you get to take her out?

If you watch Shipshape Tv. Right now, they are fixing up a 21' Seabird on the sunsine network. or go to www.shipshapetv.org. Seabird had a good hull design and was well made.

Scott,

Congradulations... from a fellow project SeaBird owner! I have a '73 23 footer that was an I/O Cuddy model. I'm going to close the transom for a full floatation bracket and then interior mods. SeaBird made a nice boat in their time. I wish I knew more about the company's history. Best of luck.

Jim - no, I didn't get to take her out, but we ran the engine for a good 30 minutes or so without issue. Also did a compression test (courtesy of Jack [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] ) with all cylinders equal.

JAL - do I hear the rumblings of ClassicSeabird.com? [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/shocked.gif[/img] We'll have to keep in touch and compare notes.

Hey Scott good looking boat! And if you hurry and register it you can pay excise tax for 2003 on the boat and trailor! just kidding enjoy and maybe we see you out on the water. Scotty.

Scott-

Hope you covered that Seabird up before the big storm! I think we should go "ice" fishing with it in Boston harbor. I can't believe the charles river has already frozen over in spots....this is the earliest I can remember in the ten years I have lived here.

Scotty,
Where you out of?

Ed,
Like a dummy I didn't cover her up. Yesterday I shoveled her out with a dustpan (didn't have a plastic shovel) [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] just so today's rain today didn't add addtional weight. Codfishing huh? I might be convinced to give it a try [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img] . Got the new electronics the other day so I'm dying to play with those.
