Thanks for the offer on the gathering. I have some great friends in Palm City, and after suddenly being retired, I have difficulty making excuses when invited to cool events. Not sure that I could have the MA ready by then...

The original color the MA is a nice off white, interior and exterior. It was my Avatar for a long time, but since resetting my password, I am now a Junior Member...whatever. The hull is almost mint though. It's a fifty mph boat, but I try never to run her over 5500 revs. And that wasn't GPS.

It's interesting about the lighter schedule application of 1979, but I absolutely love it. With the lighter color, and exposure to whatever light, it is seriously consistent throughout the hull. Not sure I can capture it by camera in my garage or not, but after assisting with the builds of 7 or 8 Jersey speed skiffs from a mold, I have a whole new respect and understanding for fiberglass construction.

Thanks for the insight on the newer model info on the Seafari. I had no idea of upgrades, but was suspicious of the serious depth of the rear cockpit drains. And after cleaning out the fuel tank area, the stringers are huge!!! You keep the good news coming, and I'll keep the pics coming, Deal?

Vezo - you don't need a boat to be accepted at the Long Point gathering! There are plenty of folks there willing to give you a ride, and lots of options, from staying in local motels around Sebastian to tent camping at Long Point, or the GFS option, i.e., a body bag tent on top of a picnic table!

. . . and I can send you lots of info if you'll PM me with an e-mail address!

Denny, I'll pm you the info. Not scared of being a guest anywhere...

New season of Wicked Tuna starting! After an afternoon of skeet shooting and steamed oysters on a bluff.?. Priceless. Be in touch.

This is a pic of the portion of the transom I was asking about removing. This would make a great beginning of a live well. And my transom in need of a new core. I have located an 18" aluminum bracket for this project. Just not spending any cash on this project until my two 15 BW Sports are sold. Tried attaching four pics but it appears only one will load at a time...
