Could this be a Seacraft?
Old hull near me, wondered if it was worth messin' with?

Sure looks like a late 60's SeaCraft to me
|
Based on your own evidence, I'd say it definatley could be one.
|
It doesn't look like a Potter hull, but it does have the old Mosely lines to it.
|
Ferm's right. Probably an old Mosely 19 SeaCraft
|
they're all worth messin with, to somebody.
|
I think its the 21, it was the only one with a sweeping shear line, they were rare as only a hand full were built. Theres been a couple restored on classicseacraft.com To me its the best looking one they built. They were the early racing models. There's a bunch of history about them on the site. great boat to restore, may be worth some money as it is

Definitely a 60's Seacraft. I love the Potter hulls, not a fan of this one.

I appreciate all the replys. I called the guy this afternoon. I was fixin' to drag a trailer to Bloomingdale. Unfortunately someone else beat me to this one. I don't think he knew what he had. Someone either got a deal or they don't know either.
Here's the craigslist ad. :sad: Free BOAT (Bloomingdale ) Date: 2011-11-11, 9:00AM EST Reply to: see below [Errors when replying to ads?] Free boat. If you have a way to haul it off it's yours. Does not come with trailer.was in my property when I moved here.

good thing I didn't see the add, I would have been like Reel and been on the way :sand:
|
Dang...you should find out who got it and offer to double their money on it.
|
They were great old boats.My dad had one when I was young.have some good memories on the water in it.:love:
|
I hope whoever picked it up realizes what they have and restore her to proper glory. I think what appeals to me is not just the boat, but the bygone era it represents when boat companies weren't huge corporations looking to push as many hulls out as possible at maximum profit. Most were started by individuals or just a few people who put true pride into their workmanship.
Here's a link to the old Carl Moesly hulls, before he sold the company to Potter (something he regreted later in life). Lots of cool old school info http://www.moeslyseacraft.com/ |
