What year are Potter Hulls???

OK, here goes my first post. I have been searching for the right center console project and would have to say, the Sea Craft has captured my heart and interest. I have done some restoration work before and somewhat know what I'm getting into. One question I'm not able to answer, and I did search the forum; what year are the "Potter Built" hulls? What's so special about that hull? Use for the boat will be inshore and costal saltwater fishing for bass, fluke, tuna, etc. The boat that is of most interest would be a 23' center console with inboard power. (just prefer inboards) Is this too tall an order? I look forward to participating in this great forum! Thanks in advance.

Welcome John_R (Not another one)

what year are the "Potter Built" hulls

1969 thru May 1980

What's so special about that hull?

Go ride in one and you'll see

Is this too tall an order?

Not really, most inboard Potter built 23's that are available are up your way

Good Luck and enjoy the forum [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Are they all the 20 and 23' hulls from 69-may of 80, or only certain HIN?

They are ALL hull sizes from '69 to May '80.

Thanks. Now all I gotta do is find a "Potter Built" inboard 23' and get to work. The search begins.

John,
There are a few really nice 23 CC inboards for sale in NJ and 1 in CT. Check yachtworld.com or boattraderonline.com.

Thanks Scott - I saw them and there are some nice rides listed. For whatever twisted reason, I'm looking for a 23' project boat. I would like to repower with diesel and any of the newer ones online have newer gas motors. I'm in no rush either.
