Just can't go wrong with the Yammy F250s you can't beat um! And those #s your getting are quite impressive for sure! upwards of 50mph+- On a bracketed 23 SeaCraft, just awesome!. Yet from all accounts it rides more like a 27' boat, I can't wait to get my rig back from paint so I can finish rigging. Everything is in.

It took two practice trips to figure out exactly how to put a bait down 1600' with 15 lb. of weight (and then get it up) using a manual reel, but I got two swordfish on the seacraft yesterday

I love this boat, but without a counter balance of another guy on the opposite gunnel, I would think twice before pulling one 100+ lbs bigger than this over the gunnels



Seacraft did her job and ran great loaded down. Probably as loaded as she has ever been; 110 gallons gas, 500 lb of crew, 100 lb ice, 60 lb of drop weights, 2 dive tanks, lots of gear, plus fish. burned less than 50 gallons all day.

shine just looked over our thred and saw the braces for your rod holders-- did the same thing only thing I forgot was to include the thickness of the gunnel before drilling the holes in the plate they move when it drops down for the gunnel
