I guess I was just looking for approval. This is a great web site that has inspired me a great deal.

What are your plans for this boat ?? as it sounds like you want the SeaCraft ... but might need to save a little for one?

You already have a 20 seafari. Right?

I like to go out the cut in chatham. I'd like to take it to the islands once in a while but, mostly fishing. I'd like to be able to go out with 4 people comfortably. I have found a 23 sceptre for around 7k but I really want the center console.

yes, but the seafari is more of a cocktail crusier, I want to make a fishing weapon

Both SC boats will give you that "comfortable ride" and then some. The Sceptre will give you more protection. Protection that would be nice in the early spring and fall up in your part of the "woods". The CC is nice too.

If your willing to travel, the southern states seems to have a bigger market of boats.

Hmmm, Talked with a Buddie of mine Yesterday that may be selling His "Converted" ~~~~ Sceptre to Center console ! The mold was Popped off a 23' CC for the front. Saw the work being done - Not the finished project. He's working at the Mia. boat show soooo it'll be when He gets away.?? ~ $$ ~ ?? I do know that the transom was closed & I think he's got a Merc on it ? 250 ? All I know now.

Tommy, seeing that you are doing your own work you could kill two birds with one stone. Get the tsunami /Scepter, lopp off the windshield, put a skinny center console in and build a Savage. A less $$ SC center colsole but with a small cuddy for the kids... That is what I would do (and would be what I do next) ...

JohnR and Scott have great Ideas.

I really like the savage conversion idea. A Sceptre for 7K is a great way to start and with this site we will be able to tell you where to get the rest of the parts for the conversion as well.

New Console T-top, etc.

Oh my we may have created a MONSTER!!!
