received a call from a nice gentleman from Miami today who was My boats original owner and had ordered my boat new back in 73, said he worked closely with Mr Potter during the building of her and visited the plant several times during her construction. , he had added a few custom touches like the center windshield brace. dual bilge pumps and the seat pedestal braces. said shes been to Bimini a few times and has raised a ton of fish in her day!!!! it was really cool talking with him and if I sold her I could pass his number to the next owner and he would be glad to talk about her history with them!

I have too many other things going on in my life right now and no time to use or work on her so she is back on the market
I have the trim motor, a gal of west marine bottom paint and new tires on the trailer now,
would make a great boat for someone. make me an offer

Default 25 seacraft

Hello my name is Mike for Key Largo I talked with you a while ago about the seacraft is the boat still for sale ? My friend Gary who you bought the boat from in Key Largo has past away in his last few days he would talk to me about his beloved seacraft and all the fish and the great times he had on the boat,Im am with out a seacraft at this time and trying to figure if i want to take on a project of that size, I would like to know if the boat is still for sale, And what kind of real shape the boat is in, Transom & Decks ? I know the motors are old and most likely would be in need of a repower................

Hate to here of Gary's passing, He was a very nice guy.
yes she is still for sale, the cockpit floor is solid as a rock, the step down area is a little soft , the transom was done in 1990 when the motors were installed and was reinforced with an aluminum plate so it prob time for a replacement, my plan was to repower her and do the transom at the same time but that isn't in My financial future. id love to see her restored to her former glory and used the way she was built to be used . I just don't have the time or funds to do it.

Man, I thought she would be sold by now at this price , over 7000 views and listed on here for a year and no one wants her, I think Her feelings are hurt and she is feeling unwanted, some one needs to finish restoring this beauty and make her happy again, I feel bad that I cant devote the time and $ she deserves to make her the envy of all other Seacraft wanna be boats out there
come on guys, I need to sell her soon.
You cant beat this deal
