Do you have two primer bulbs? One at the filter and one for the motor?

There is only one primer bulb, I choose to mount them on the tank side of the filter.


Launched the boat over the week end, went for the initial sea trial and engine break in.
Exceeded all expectations but will take some getting used too, it is bigger than my old 20.
Stereo kicks a--- and it's not even dialed in yet.
Engine is quiet (too quiet for an old analog guy like me?), hmmm, we shall see.
Got the boat on plane, (don't tell the Yamaha Dealer, :-), just had too, she will ride differently than the old boat.
Pretty happy with everything, I have lots of "Tightening up" to do, final touches, but I feel a Bahamas trip coming on, sandflats, fresh conch and LLL/TM II pics. :-).

I am new to the SeaCraft and do not even own a classic but your work has given me the bug. CR and this latest build are two of the most exceptional boats I have seen. Beautiful work.

All I can say is wow! Good looking water line. Love the windshield. Is it custom? I like the way it comes all the way down to the bottom of the second flat of the console. Cant wait to hear the stats on that new 200 4 cyl. Neat little light on the motor hood too.

The Abacos are calling........great job once again! Your innovation may be getting our forgotten brand too much attention for low prices in the resale market ! One question- weight. Most of us realize that CG at rest due to Don's bracket (it's a Hermco, right?)is great, but........what is your low end planing speed? Tabs are a must and are you satisfied with the planing CG since that's when that great buoyancy of the bracket tub disappears?

Those are pop up button fender holders.

Awesome job!

I bet it feels bigger, eliminating the liner and adding the bracket opens up some deck space. I love the layout.

Cool idea for fender holders, where did you get them?
