read more on "the builder" on the F&S site. Seems one of the founders had an old 23' that inspired him to do this.....I seatrialed a 58' that these guys built in '98. It was impressive. on my short list.

Wow, that looks like one of those stressful days in the life of a boat builder [img]/images/graemlins/ooo.gif[/img] (and a crane operator!)

Awesome pics!

WOW... A monster SC..

check out the ghetto hull design logo on F&S here


then take a look at Seacraft's site here

I wonder where he got that image?

How much does a boat like this cost? A couple million?

This quote is taken from my 1973 SeaCraft Brouchure. Does the wording sound familiar [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Yes it is,....Jim is a friend of mine and thats his 76 Sceptre in the background. He has owned several SeaCrafts and thats Y his boats sport that hull design. His latest 63 footer with a pair of 1800hp Cats runs around 36 knots at 1850rpm and tops out I believe around 44 knots at WOT. WOW as we say here "what a ride"!!! The new one on the drawing board will be 68 feet long with a pair of 2400 hp Cats and estimated speeds in the 55 knot range??? Boys and their toys!

Lou,

Ah, the Bandolera. She blew by Dad and I the Sat. after the White Marlin Open as we were heading up DE Bay in his 32 Luhrs. Stupid me left the camera down in the cabin and he overtook us so fast I didn't have time to climb down from the bridge and get it. What a beautiful boat!!!!!
