Yeah, I pretty much figured that.. wife due feb 22 with our first so the 33 bert i had in my sights is a non starter, but got the green light for another re-fit. Starting search tomorrow in queens and brooklyn BIG yards where one might go unnoticed. That's how I found my 20 3 yrs ago. John R- you looking for a 20'? If I see any I'll let u know. How much is a new Yam 225, 13k?

Hey Endeavor - congrads! My only son is two (and has been sick for a week now [img]images/icons/rolleyes.gif[/img] )... Gets to be a lot of fun!

I will be looking for a 23 but right now I may need to rebuild up the necessary and see a little more stability at the job...

So tell me about this "place" or e-mail me if you'd like, hehehehe

John get used to it. When my oldest started preschool last year the whole family spent more time sick then well. Not too bad this year, I guess they get it out of there systems.

Endeavor, keep you eyes pealed for a '23 sceptre.

Finster- I think if I found a 23 sceptre I would rip the top off and build a console. anyone done that before on this sight?

John R · #7 01-18-2003, 11:15 AM

and make it like a Savage?

Endeavour,
I don't think anyone on this site has converted a Sceptre to a CC, but like John R says, you would have a Savage. The Savage was a Sceptre that lost its full windshield and had a center console added. I would think if you bought an older Sceptre (Tsunami), that conversion wouldn't be too difficult since the Tsunamis didn't have storage boxes beneath the helm and passenger seats. On my '82 the storage boxes are molded into the liner, so you'd have to do quite a bit of glass work to get rid of them in order to fit a console in.

Steve if its the one over at Saquatucket they had it advertised this fall for $10000 saw it in the paper and ran over thinking it was possibly a 23' I didn't know that they made the 25 that long ago.
