Thanks for the heads-up Tom! He spend serious bucks on that refit! Didn't add spray rails, but everything looks like solid upgrades.

Snook, The 32's are wet but he's a diver. He can just put his mask on when he leaves the dock! - "We don't need no stinkin' spray rails!"

Did not know the 32 had saddle tanks !! No wonder it was wet ....

Moving the tank to the center will change the whole dynamics of
how it rides now... Hummm, my opinion just changed on the 32.

He had the 20SF so he knows !

I hate to say it, but I will.....this show is a waste to fill a time slot on fishing TV, OR it's a nice advertisement for Marine Customs! I've watched it a few times and if you have a bunch of "moola" you can get your boat rebuilt on TV at twice the price it's worth!! I guess the 20+ year old 25' old Hydra-Sport at a smooth $104K sent me over the edge, it's still the wettest 25' boat ever built!!!

I own three different Seacrafts a potter 18, a potter 23 and a Tracker 32, Anyone who has rebuilt a seacraft knows the high cost of building one. Don Herman worked on both of my Seacrafts closing in the transom and installing the brackets that made them a better boat, if I wasn't able to do some of the work myself it would have cost me quite a bit more.
I will say they all run great and each one has a purpose the 32 for offshore fishing is hands down the best riding of all three.

Default Ladders

I recently posted a recommendation to anchor from the bow, not the stern. That is a nice ladder on the video of the 32'. But wonder about its usefulness. Right after taking delivery of my 20' Seafari in '76, Bushwacker and I made transom mounted swim platforms together. Many years later when some of my guests needed it I added a 3 step telescoping ladder to the platform. However, I modified it to mount it underneath the platform out of the way. The platform is supported with 1/2" dock line. Recently added some heavy shock chord to keep the aft end of the platform tipped up a bit, which stretches when you load it up. Guess it's an example of how configurations evolve based on changing needs.
