God
'bout freaking time, heh?

Found a boat. 1971 Seacraft 20'. New transom the end of 05, raised to 25", new deck in 1998. Forward casting platform removed when deck was redone, big plus for us NE FF'erman. You can still get up on the fore deck to sight cast.

Motor is a 1998 Mercury 200 EFI, motor cowling was stolen and replacement is in good shape but no decals.

Leaning post, live bait well, hydraulic steering, Garmin 188c (only electronics)

Tandem aluminum trailer.

The green is the only downside I can see so far, not digging that at all! Oh well, i'll fish the hell out of it this year and possibly paint it next winter.

Boat is located in...where else??? FL of course...ROADTRIP!

Leaving tomorrow...wish me luck!

Hey Mulv wait a minute!!! If Tin goes he'll take his avitars with him!!! I think he at least deserves a vote. I say he stays! It's not like he bought a sailboat or something.

Thanks rick. ;)
 
I vote to keep Tin, his green boat - just in time for St Patty's day, and last but not least - his avitars. Nice looking ride Tin, now go fishing!
 
Franco, one of the big selling points of this boat for me is the flush deck from bow to stern...you know of any other boat that has that ;) ;D
 
You can stay, and yes a V20 is alot of boat for a Yota!! Thats whats holding CB up, he looking for size that will be Yota friendly.

I have no problem with Chevy ;D
 
As a matter of fact I do, that would be the McKee Craft 196 marathon - my new boat, we bought our new boats for the same reasons!! I even like the green

I knew your boat did, that's why I said it!
:)

Oh....and the price is $6,500. I think I did good but also did not see the boat in person yet either. He assures me everything is in working order. I'm not expecting a mint condition boat for that price. The seller really seems like a straight shooter. I asked him if the trailer is ready for 1,000+ mile trip, if the tires and bearings are good, he said yes. Then he calls me back and says he taking the boat to have the 4 wheel bearings replaced and he'll pay for it...he just wanted to make sure I'd be alright trailering it that far!
 
Thanks for the kudos  ::) ::)

Sweet price and the guys sounds like a good egg, where ya picking it up from?

I see a Florida registration on her hull, and palm trees in the background. I knew I'd get ya'll to come to Florida!!
 
Guy lives in Miami but is going to Orlando for business from tomorrow thru Sunday evening. He's trailering the boat to Orlando to save me about 500 miles rountrip, nice guy.

I'm meeting him Sunday morning in Maitland. I told him I NEED a sea trial. He called back and said he found a public boat ramp (lake) 5 miles from his jobsite. ;D
 
Man, you'll be like 90 minutes west of me in Orlando, Come on buy if you get tired, thirsty or hungry!! Or you just wanna show me the new ride!!
