Sam,

Be sure to post pictures once you get the styrofoam installed. This may be the first Styro-SeaCraft in the making, and I doubt that I'm the only one dying to see photos of what you come up with.

I can not wait to see this. We have been asked many things but shortening a boat is a new and interesting one.

Please post pictures

Sam - 23ft seacraft's are very expensive these days. Take the $3,000 (cost for materials) and spend it on a used 16ft carolina skiff with a 9.9hp.

You'll save yourself about 2000 man hours and retain the full value of that 23ft seacraft.

approx value of a 23ft hull in working condition => 10K - 25k depending on the condition.

The minute you cut it up and make it a 17ft . . . the resale value will drop by 90% (at least).

Either sam needs some real help or we have our first troll in a long time.

Bigshrimpin, some of us really want to see a duck-blind Styro-Craft!

Yes, he will need the all important Seamark bracket and HDS sticker too!
