ditto on the dusky. 23 with a dusky drive (bracket) is a great hull and still trailerable. i personally like ***8224;he ones with a small cuddy up front. it's just large enough to stow some gear that you want to stay dry.

I like that Dusky too...not many around here to go look at though.

The lack of room in the rear of a CC is a concern, thats why I like the looks of the Proline 240 and the GW CC's, they have the console mounted more forward.

The Proline 23 sport around 2001-2003 looks good too, its a 25' Donzi hull called a 23 for the old SKA 23' and under class.

I am with you on the ETEC Spare, but it NADA's for like $13K used so I could sell it and get a new 4 stroke to replace it...but I wont do anything until winter when people need Christmas money.

All the Seacrafts I am finding are either basket cases or rebuilt and crazy priced.

I ran across a Donzi cabin boat a while back(not a walk around, it was an I/O) that was for sale, i tried to talk Ridge Runner into buying it. It was a beast of an hull. Seems like it was a cross over from the hydra sports when OMC owned them boat. Looked to be one heck of a boat. Center consoles bring far more money on average than cuddys, don't ask me why. Centers use up a lot of space in the boat, unless you plan on fishing off the bow, I'd rather have a cuddy and the extra room. Speaking of Hydra sports, thats anoterh choice to look at, I know some one down here that has a cuddy hyrda sport fixer upper that can be bought right. I also forgot, look hard at Pursuits/Tierra/Slick Crafts they made some awesome boats and have glass stringers(no rot to worry about)

I am trying to only look at boats that have limited wood in the hulls.

What motor is on this boat?

Sailfish, or Regulator. I really want the 23 Sailfish and twin 200's. Hull sides in Orange. 9' beam and VDR hull that the Seacraft bunch creams their pants over.. They are a big freakin hull. Not sure of the quality, but I likes the looks of the hull.

1995 is when they went woodless according to the internet.
