Default New Seacraft owner

Just wanting to introduce myself. My name Jim, and I am from Orlando, FL. I purchased my 1st Seacraft a few weeks ago. I moved up from a 85 Mako 224 to a 79 23cc. Shes had the transom enclosed powered with 2 Johnson 225s on a stainless marine bracket. I have a few projects needing to be done shortly. I have soft spots in the floor and the wiring needs to be redone. I have browsed the site for a few years but have not posted. Once I get the ball rolling i will be sure to start a thread with lots of boat porn!



Jim

Welcome aboard, Capt'n! There is always room and welcome for more good-natured nuts in this barrel.

My condolences on hearing of your new found addiction. Bye the way, that is one SWEEET upgrade! I can see why you addicted yourself willingly.

Thanks for the warm welcome. She is in the shop at the moment getting a new timer base put in the stbd engine. Once that is complete and shes running again i plan on getting her nice and bloody. Had issues on the maiden voyage, after finding only one lobster we went to move and the stdd engine would start so we had to limp into port early. Not the best of trips. Gotta love working out all the bugs of a "new" boat.

A comment like this speaks volumes about the boats we love so much! Welcome aboard!
