Default Re: 18 year olds first Seacraft

The whole 95 stretch from the Bronx to Bridgeport is pretty tough, definitely not an ideal spot. I picked up my 23 in Philadelphia last year and was extremely nervous around the same area.

Also, I nearly lost my boat in Carver dropping it off to get wrapped this Fall. I was an absolute idiot last year and didn't check the hubs/repack bearings, etc. Just filled the bearing buddies. The whole right side of the trailer blew out getting off of route 3. Lesson learned!!!! Screw getting the boat ready in the Spring, the first thing I am doing is trailer maintenance.

Great job on getting the boat.....took me 39 years to get my first one.

Too bad about the wagon, welcome to owning a boat I guess.

Congrats on the purchase and condolescences to the trailer mishap. A few years ago I passed through that section of 95 and almost got hit by a tire & wheel that came flying off a jacked up F250/350 in front of me. If it had hit my car I would have sent the bill to Finster since I was heading to his house.

WOW nice pickup - I was considering a 2000 mile ride for it, it was my favorite SeaCraft - good luck

The trailer would have been a nightmare for me but heading south it may have held up - all down hill
