I think it looks cool! I don't see the 'Seatt'. I see what you see. Bottom line... it's yours to make what you want of it. You'll probably have to explain it to a few, but, it'll catch on. If it starts to gnaw at you, slide the ++ over a little more for some separation.

The illusive 4' Gigginhauler. One of my friends dad, RIP, decided he wanted something to haul his flounder gigging gear in and made the mold many years ago. It's gelcoated, but I camo'ed it for duck hunting. Not that exciting, but, I snickered everytime I posted, waiting for somebody to bite. All in the name of fun!


Also, wanted to show off my new bling on the console.

Been working on a logo for the boat to go on the hull sides. My SeaCraft stickers on the sides are gonna be the newer style with the metallic gold outline on black. I think the combo looks great on sea foam boats as seen here on this 2001 21':



So I've decided to play on that. Downloaded the logo from the Brands of the World website and used the Sea from that logo to ensure the correct font/spacing/etc. Playing off the computer themed name decided to use binary (1s and 0s) as the interior of the ++'s. These will be visible up close but fade away from a distance and just look filled in.



The gold will obviously not be that yellow, but rather match the gold from the SeaCraft stickers, and the white will be the hull side so all white will be sea foam. Comments? Suggestions? One comment that I got from friends is that it looked like it said Seatt, what do you guys think?

i like it ....the binary is a nice touch imo....but it's what you like...plus the boat speaks for itself

Uncleboo - that thing is awesome! and the new bling is niceeee!

Thanks for all the support guys. Finished sanding last night, boat is getting cleaned today and then 545'd tonight or tomorrow morning. So close to topcoat I can taste it!

Starting to layout the rewire, trying to do a quality job on her so I have as little headaches in the future as possible.

Threw this together, anyone see anything wrong (I am by no means an electrician)?

I am by no means an electrician either, and you seem to have put time, effort, and therefore thought into this by the looks of your drawing. If I'm reading the drawing right, you have 2 bilges, but only 1 wired directly to a battery. I wired both of mine with switches each to their own battery. Hopefully taking a dead battery out of the equation. The other thing I noticed was your electronics are wired to the master switch. I read somewhere that electronics should be wired directly to a battery. Wiring where you have it will eliminate voltage drop due to load or resistance, but it may pick up noise from any number of things including alternators.

Again, I'm only spewing what I did and what I read.

I would put a switch(on-off-auto) on the bilge pumps as well. My thoughts are that when the boats on a trailer and you get frequent heavy rains like here in South Florida you could end up with your pump running unnecessarily and draining your batteries.
