1974 scepter

[76Red18]

The outside of the boat does not look like it should go with the inside.

Very clean and shined up.

Very abused and dirty.

What is up

Thats the way my 18 was when I spotted it about a 1/2 mile from the highway. I just had to turn around and check it out. She was an unfinished project and still is 8 years later. And to this day, one of the prettiest boats in my area. Deck is for blood and guts!!

looks very clean and shiny in pics but its been painted recently.i took the boat out for sea trails 2 times and amazingly everything works!!! I only paid 2300 for the boat and trailer so i think im ahead so far. its not that i dont like the cabin but its not that practical. there is no anchor locker, and i had a 23' hydro-sport wa and never used the cabin.i think i just want a project for the next few years! it also needs new transom,dive platform and an engine bracket to make room for dive platform

i was thinking the boat restoration might cost 10-12 K and then another 10-12 K on the engines!! is this about right

Whatever you do with it, its a sharp looking boat.

And then you can sell it for 10-12

Basswacker its sad to say but "Your Right" you could have a SeaCraft worth 30k these days and it wouldn't sell for no more than 10-15k. So if anyone is going to restore a CSC these days with the price of all the materials to do it, you better plan on marrying the boat for a long time.
