Default 1974 SeaCraft 23' CC

1974 23' Seacraft CC with twin 1989 Mercury 200's, and 1991 Slip-On trailer. Electronics include VHF, Sitex GPS, Sitex colorscope, Loran, and Pioneer marine AM-FM-CD w/ Sony 50 watt power amp. Boat is in great running condition for its age. Many upgrades in 2004 & 2005 including fresh paint, new canvas, beefed up legs on T-top, new batteries, new bolster and leaning post pads, new lowrance fuel managment system, and new axles and tires on trailer. Boat cruises easily at 35 mph with top end at 54+ mph.

Moved 120 miles inland in spring of '05 due to job change and have simply not been able to use the boat due to time and distance. Boat is located near Washington, NC.
Asking $15,000.

Just replaced starboard starter and had trailer rebuilt by local welder that used heavy pipe on cross beams and fabricated new brackets to hold the bunks. Ran boat on Saturday 10/21/06. Ran out great, ready to fish. It just needs a new owner.

Around 9 to 10 gph per engine cruising 3800 to 4200 rpm which gives you 35 to 38 mph on this boat. These are regular carburated Mercury's with the oil injection removed.

Sorry, forgot the wide open part. Turning 5600 to 5700 rpms runs the boat in the low to mid 50's mph range while burning a whopping 16 gph per engine. We don't do that a whole lot but it is fun to run it up for a short distance.

That is great milage. I have a 23 footer w/twin 1998 150 carb Yamaha's and probably do no better than 1.75 miles per gallon (burn 18 gallons per hour at 32 mph).

Also, I max out in the mid 40's. Maybe my prop size ahs something to do with the max speed?

Good luck with the boat sale.

Those numbers are on flat water with 1/2 tank of gas and just me on the boat. Much different on the open ocean with two other people, a full tank of gas, a bunch of gear, curtains down and a baitwell full of water and menhadden. Loaded down like that this boat gets 1.25 to 1.5 mpg on a fishing trip depending on conditions.
