Default Mr Seacraft

I have some sad news, Mr Seacraft aka Carl Moesly passed at home in Key Largo with family around early this morning. Carl was 97 years old and was at peace. We though the CSC family should know.

He may be gone but his legacy will clearly live on forever. He created one of the most timeless boat designs ever. RIP Mr. Moesly and thank you

Our deepest sympathy to the Family of Carl.
It was a pleasure to have known him personality and cherished several SeaCraft get-togethers with him.
His legend lives on .
Chuck & Lillian

It’s a sad day. I’m going to spend it in the Gulf on my Seafari hunting Grouper. Hope he is watching over us. My condolences Skip and Carla. Godspeed.

Michael.

Default Carl’s Legacy Will Live On!

Carla & Skip-
So sorry. Nice to know he was so physically close to you in his final days. Although we never met your parents personally, we both so enjoyed your photos and stories about them. And like so many others we have had years of enjoyment on the great crafts he created.
Anita and Terry

Ken-Sorry to hear that your dad passed as well! Praying for you!

Skip and Carla, so sorry to hear of Carl’s passing. I know it was not unexpected, but that doesn’t make it any easier and you have our deepest sympathy. It should be comforting to know that you absolutely did everything possible to make your folks comfortable, give them the best of care and see them so often these last few months. Please tell Jeane that she also is in our thoughts and prayers.

Your dad was an amazingly creative and adventurous guy and it was truely a privilege to have met and talked with him on several occasions. It’s very rare to meet such a successful man who was yet so humble and modest that you’d have no clue of his many accomplishments, at least until he began relating some of his famous stories!

I will always remember Carl for his beautiful mind.

Water coming in a scupper with folks in the corner?
Cross the scupper hoses.

Brackets and their challenges?
Just extend the hull.

Who needs a pump for a live well?
Not Carl.

When I first met Carl and Jeanne, I saw a love and respect you rarely see anymore.

The pilot`s pilot has a new vector.

Cheers and thank you Carl and family,
Sandy n Janet
