I caught a lot of flack a few weeks ago for making the broad generalization that most of the brand name boats being made today are better finished and engineered than the boats of twenty or thirty years ago. Better fit and finish, better hardware, better resins and gelcoat, no wood construction, etc. Just like automobiles, the boats keep getting better. But I'd still rather have a hot rodded '55 Chevy than an '05 Impala. New big block V8 trick suspension, radial tires ,custom paint & interior. Just as much prefer an older classic Seacraft re-done my way than new copy. Just my 2 cents

I want to apologize to all of my fellow CSC members and
to 84 Master Angler for what took place over the last few days. Sometimes we all get caught up with the moment and it spirals out of control. It sure kept me from leaving the computer. Ok, lets get back to bashing Bayliners, I do not think we have any members with one of those? Or do we? Sincerely, Ken [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] PS: Amen Fr Frank

I have been assigned by several of No Bones aquaintances (He has no friends) to keep track of his whereabouts. With unlimited time and money who needs friends. Unfortunately when he runs out of ridlin he substitutes Capt.Morgan (which could explain the 6' seas) Nevertheless he does love his rebuilt Seacraft( which was a fill-in for a 22' Aquasport)and can often be seen standing behind the helm pissing all over the deck.

I thought this thread was pretty funny with everyone gettin their panties in a bunch and all defensive about their beloved Seacrafts.
I'm not a very sensitive type, so all in good fun I say. But I really don't begrudge anybody or pass judgement on their rides.Everybody has different tastes, budgets, and abilities so I say if your having fun and you're respectful of other boaters and the environment - God bless ya [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] Mine's a pretty stripped down, old power, low budget, Potter built.But, when I pulled into the harbor Sun my buddy was having cocktails on his 38 Bert and said "you know Bill, that is the prettiest hull I've seen in this harbor all day" Certainly not everyone feels that way, but for those of us that do - well that's why we do it. I think. Bill |

No Bones and Capt. Chuck, I didn't intend on this turning into a personal attack. I guess everyone has their passions, and obviously I underestimated a man's love for his SeaCraft...I guess the most important things in life are a man's SeaCraft, Dog, Truck & then wife [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img].
