Re: another hull
There has never been that many SeaCrafts in this area. Hawley's Marine had them for 1 year, they only had 4 23's, I bought 1 and was told the others were sent to Alaska. They then went bankrupt. There was a 19-21 CC for sale up here a year or so ago, don't know if it was sold or not. I'll keep you in mind.

Re: another hull
Gary,
Thank you. My goal is to take an open hull up the inside passage to Alaska in 2010. The Seacraft looks like a good hull for that trip. Do you agree? Is there another open hull that could prove to be a logical choice? KE7GCJ Dale

Re: another hull
That is a pretty gutsy trip even for a SeaCraft 23WA. There are some real nasty streches of water, even for the inside. I've talked with a couple of people who have made the trip in something a 24 Bayliner. I have a friend who has had his 24 Bayliner as far as Desolation Sound, but he was tagging along with a 30ft Whaler and a 38ft Bayliner. Georgia Straits can be nasty because the wind funnels down thru there. I have been as far as Campbell River. Also fished out of Prince Rupert, but drove up there to board a boat.

Re: another hull
Trayder (our administrator) has a video that he got from Mr. Potter of two SeaCrafts that make a trip from California to Mexico. I'm sure you would have no problem if you planned your trip well.

Re: another hull
Gary and Strick,
thank you for the input. I tow an 18 ft Whaler to Campbell River in the summer and have seen the wind kick up is a hurry around Cortes Is. As far as planning I have friends that cruise up and back every year in big boats and they would help with the ports of call and refuges. It's a crazy dream that I have had for 20 years and the best part will be the planning and playing in the boat. Who knows I may end up with photos on the Seacraft Forum. Again thank you. As the ball keep rolling I will certainly let you know. All the best KE7GCJ Dale
