Soon to be new owner...have some questions

[kwluis]

It's a 2005.

I was hesitant at first because of all the things that I have heard. I had my father check out all of the wiring, connections, fittings, etc. He does marine elecrtical work as well as other little quality control things on brand new million dollar yachts and government boats. He gave it a thumbs up...not as good as Seavee or contender, but not bad.

I am waiting for the boat to be built and delivered...ordered it at the Miami Boat show.

I saw the website earlier and it's better than it was before.

I'm glad some of our new improvments are starting to show up on the boats in the field. When you get your new boat, I sincerly hope you enjoy it!

Don't expect a warm welcome here brother. Start building something that diserves the name Seacraft. Then come back! [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img] Those improvement were obvisiouly missing on the boats at the AC show.

I'm glad that everyone here don't share your feelings about me. Kind of odd being that we havn't ever met.

Ntrain2k, nothing personal here. I just find it very suspect that you come around trying to be the "Great Provider" when it's been no secret to anyone that Mako Ind. has taken two respected boats (SeaCraft/Mako) and ground them into the dirt, while riding on the coat tails of a name and reputation that was built over fourty years ago.

And this has nothing to do with Capt. C's boat. I've talked to dealers and heard their storys, and seen the boats.
You guys have a tough road up hill no matter how you look at it. Maybe you are building a good boat now, but it has yet to be seen in the field.

And I have a very hard time buying the fact that you represent yourself. First off you didn't come here as a boat owner, second you sign your name with your company title. For all we know you own a Bayliner.

P.S Just a little tip. Next boat show, make sure all the blue tape is off....

Cheers.

Well first off, I have not came here to be a great provider, just to try and answer questions.I am an hourly associate who has no office, and even if I did, I would have no time to use it. I do the warranty repair work here at the plant.I do represent myself, and not Tracker. If you beleive me or not it does not matter to me. I sign my name with my title simply so that people can see that I do work for the company, and that I have nothing to hide. And guess what, I don't own a boat at all anymore, so definatly no bayliner here. My preference is now drag racing.

Welcome to this site. Personally, I look forward to your insights and advice in the arena of boat repair and construction. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

It's hard not to take things personally when they are addressed to you, such is the nature of forums like this. However, what you are reading is borne of a collective frustration and is not personal. Hopefully that will change.

For my brother CSC members, remember, just because a guy is from Iraq does not make him Saddam. [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

It's nice to see someone from the "New SeaCraft" visiting the "Classic SeaCraft" people [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I think an introduction of yourself for the 1st posting would be appropriate. Are your future comments personnal (from Ron) or representing SeaCraft / Tracker [img]/images/graemlins/confused.gif[/img]

Because in the past the new has not been very coopertive with the old [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]

Luis,

What I was getting at is that you could have one hell of a professionally restored older 23 SeaCraft for 50K, heck you could have a real nice one for half that. But, the jury is still out on what SeaCraft will start producing now that they have moved, and with their new "mission statement" to improve quality. There have been numerous posts on this site and others that deal with major structural issues on some of the recent boats. Not all, but some. I guess all I can recommend is do your homework. Good luck..

It's a shame that that the local dealer dropped
the line because of quality issues. I won't go
into detail, but Johnny Morris ruined a once
great name.
