"Ken-Do" should be the "operation's name."
"Kan-Do" or "Ken-Did" could be the boat name. Just my thoughts!!!!!!!

Congrats, KUDO's and lots of luck on the rebuild.

PS. That "Savage" style 27 looks like a REAL killer boat!!!! Living . breathing and capable BOAT PORN!!!!!

Default ******** eXtreme Makeover---- 27' Edition*******

Had to wait for the crack to wear off before coming back
and thanking all my CSC friends. This to me is the score
of the year! Until that dad-gum Scampi comes around.
This 27 is the tank of tanks. Yes it is in sad sad shape.
That was no BS about the rats, termites etc...
My buddy in the wrecker business is going to impound
her for 45 days do all the paper work for $125 and then
have a clean title in hand.
The rig is to tall to flat bed or lowboy out.
She is going to have to roll on her own 4 feet.
New tires will do the trick. Unsure of the bearings
until it is jacked up.
I will keep you all posted on the progress.
I have 2 Sceptre's and 1 Savage at area 442 that
will be coming to the market place real soon.
Thanks again, you all are the best in our CSC community.




The lines of these SeaCrafts make me sweat!!!!


See ya, Ken

"No guts: No Glory"

Ken, you've got the guts and it'll should be a blast to follow the trail to glory.

Keep at least one of the "minor" syblings for, shall we say "moments of encouragement"!

Congrats, Guy.

Congratulations Ken! That's gotta be the save of the decade! Sounds like a CSC Gathering/Fairing and Sanding party at Area 442 is in order! Denny

Wow! Congratulations on the rare find. Lets get the cap from the guy that cut up his Seavette, modify it to fit your boat and build another 27 Seavette it could be hull #4. We could put twin 502's in that bad boy. I wish that we lived closer, I would love to help you get that sucker home.

Way to go, Ken. The deck lines of the 27 SeaMaster are very like the 20' and 25' Seafari. Tres belle.

If you need someone fairly close to pull it for you, I've got a frame-pull rating of 21,400 lbs with my Ford diesel SuperDuty, and a drawbar with a 2 5/16" ball rated for 16,000 lb pull / 1500 lb tongue weight. I'm about 90-100 miles away, and travel to the east coast of FL often.
