Excellent restore Mark.
Some more questions for you, when you get a chance. 1)Where is the fuel fill 2) what is Fantastic Plastics located. I can't seem to find a web address for them. The console door is perfect. thanks |

If you look at the only overhead shot taken of the boat above, the fuel fill is easy to see: it is the shiny round thing on the port gunnel directly across from the console. The rod holders were put in the following day, so the fuel fill is the only thing on the gunnel in that photo.
Fantastic Plastics is on A1A in Stuart. Their phone number is 772.223.8005 - ask to speak to Brian and reference Mark Lewis' 20' SeaCraft that was done at Wildfire, that should jog his memory a bit. Good luck/ mark |

Mark, first of all, let me join the rest and tell you that this a great job, exactly what I have been dreaming of doing since I acquired my boat. I am presently working on raising some capital to restore my 20' Seafari and I would appreciate it if you could give me a ball park figure on how much this type of restoration could cost, not including the engine, of course, so I can work towards an attainable goal. If this is possible, you can contact me at my email, nestorpr@bellsouth.net. Thanks!

Mark; I tried to post when you first put the pics up, but for whatever reason, it didn't get there. Congrats, you have eclipsed (big word) any other rebuild I have experienced or seen..!!!!. I should let the forum know that I (unknown to Mark and I) have the pleasure of knowing the previous owner very well, and have run that boat (and run out of Gas at Columubus Day Regatta) a number of times. I am sure Mark found some beer cans hidden in the inards..) I hope to be able to run it again some day...
An unbelievable job that should inspire more than a few folks here. That boat should be in a Museum!. you took an extremely methodical approach to the whole project and I can't begin to count the small details that make it more exceptional...please call when you are in the area.,. |

That is one sweet boat. I hope mine comes out half as good as yours.

Tom,
I'm sure you notice many details that I took the liberty of copying off your Whitewater (still the nicest boat I've been on). You are certainly welcome to run this boat again anytime you want - maybe I can tow it down for the Columbus Day Regatta next year and we can see how long the current fuel supply holds out [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img] I am still out of power up here in Stuart due to hurricane Jeanne but am over at Capt Chucks house doing some email and REALLY enjoying the air conditioning (you don't thoroughly appreciate it until it's gone). |

Hey Mark-
How did your new home make out during the last hurricane? I was hoping that you were in Colorado when it blew through... Ed |

Hi Ed,
Thanks for your concern, I was fortunate in that the house did very well during the two storms that made direct visits here. The boat dock was covered with debris due to high water and we lost a tree or two, but that was about it. People within a few blocks of here did far worse. It has been a Summer devoid of boredom to be sure [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] |
