There's one at the city's marina. *I like the boat it's an inboard. *The pilot house in my opinion should be made of removible curtains. *It would give it a more open feel. *Bill Mc *;D

Love em too Tin, but the older ones had low freeboard which I am not a fan of, I love there later versions with the keel drive I/O with the straight shaft. It would probably be the boat I would own if I had the money. They are like riding in a much larger boat, balanced well ,ride extremely smooth thru any kind of sea. I do wish they would start using less wood and more composites in construction, talked to the salesman at the AC Boat Show and he said they have lost some sales to other boat companies due to their sticking with wood.

I like them too.http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y7/...0517853203.jpg.. Found this one its a walkaround 20ft .

Willy, have you ridden in one?

Re: Shamrock 20 Pilot
 

Man, that is some cockpit for a 20' CC, all flush deck, motor under console. A small Yanmar diesel with that keel drive would be the deal!

Fished several hours in one down in Barnegat inlet area, I think it was 24ft, had the small cuddy all the way forward like some of the older Dusky's. Had the full keel arrangement. Loved it. Very dry and super smooth riding thru the chop. It was rough in the inlet but was no problem, we were drifting thru for stripes and did well. Boat just had a very solid feel, I felt that if I had the oppurtunity that would be on a very short list for me.

That boat is the cat's buttocks! 8) Up my way too.

Re: Shamrock 20 Pilot
 

Years ago a friend of mine had one and it was a tough little boat but the inboard took up too much space and hard to control around docks when the tide or wind picked up. If you could find one with a blown motor you could easily put a big outboard on a bracket and have a tough rough water boat with reasonable fishing room. Frank.

Frank, are you talking about the pilot house version? Thought the motor was under the seating area???

check out this one w/enclosure, nice but pricey.
