Default Re: New to me 23 Seacraft 1978

Actually after cutting my boatslip fee, insurance, maintenance in half I now have no boat payment and no boat yard fees with use of my tralier.

With the big boat I started to get lame excuses from usual offshore buddies why they cant fish, mall or beach with wife , dr's appt's, etc,. It occurred to me that gas was too expensive for them to chip in which was critical since Id burn 150-200gals to the canyon trolling all day.

withthe seacraft I burned 90 and 101 gals in last 2 trips. Bsically half. Big boat 22-24knots ;seacraft 28-30 knots.
That said the Albemarle was a tank and real comfortable. Also I miss my Pipe Dreams Marine tower!

Don did some work on my t-top frame. He told me what his usual rate would have been (which is les than I have paid before), he works fast and his work is fantastic. He really knows what he is doing.
