Anyone one know of the " Mosely 21 " Seacraft ?

[bgreene]

The Mosely 21 was an early Seacraft boat, that's like a V20 / 21 on steroids .

It was built to blast through the ocean at high speed for hours on end, without pounding or breaking apart.

It's got a " bull dog look" ..........very high proud bow, sits maybe over 5' off the water, very deep V forward and reportedly built like a tank.

Very rare boat, few left. Can see about it on the Seacraft web site.

Wellcraft should have built the V's in the same way, to offer even better total performance.

Wrong Mosley is trying to copy a wellcraft who got it right the first time. Wannabe wellcraft boats

I don't see any resemblance to a V-20 myself. It is a 21 footer, 8' beam(only 7' at the transom), with a variable deadrise hull and no bow flare to speak of. It was the pre cursor to the infamous 23 SEACRAFT, and his 1st variable deadrise hull design.

I tried to talk myself in to that boat when you posted it, I had(and still have) way too many projects

This is a good read. If kids did stuff like this we might have a chance.

From owners reports and research........ not close comparison to the Wellcraft.

Bgreene, you should watch Boat Angel. Seems like every few weeks someone puts up an old Sea Craft Seafari for a no reserve auction. Most are up north.

Yup, and maybe " some day" a Seacraft 23' Sceptre or 25' Safari ......

For now, the V21 continues to serve well, and it's such a pretty boat too !

Reason I like the 21 Mosely based on build / design to run ocean waves:
A. without pounding
B. for hours on end without breaking up
I've read that other bigger boats left behind the Mosely, as that hull design eats up 2'-4' chop by cutting and landing with a " whoosh" not a bamb !!!

Here off NJ, there are times when that type of rig would be useful - to handle distances with less care.
