Don't know if I should have posted in F/S section but I though this looked pretty neat.

I never heard of a Sea Bird before. But I sure do like the look of her. 8)

Looking at the pictures a little closer... Are those two kicker brackets on the back?

That dude named 76GMC1500 has one. It is pretty sweet. The cabin has more head room than the V.
Here is a pic I dug up.

And here is the whole thread. Some pretty neat pix in the old thread too. Some of MJ's old V before the new owner murdered it. :-/

V20 and the Seabird are both are ray hunt designs . . . so you might see some similarities. That ebay Seabird has a 24 degree deadrise in the stern.

Other than the variable deadrise, the 23' Seabird looks very similar in profile to a 23' SeaCraft. Many people mistake them for the SeaCraft at first glance.
