After you have done your reply and want to add a pic....scroll down to "manage attachments", easy from there. Just pick out your pics from your PC, upload and off you go.

1974 20 ft sea craft
I just picked it up. Going to do a partial restore on it .
What do you guys think about it being an i/o original potter?

Very nice!! I noticed electronics are much more compact now days!!

I'd rather have the extra interior space with an outboard on a bracket. Nice find and good luck.

Nice find! I dig the yellow color.

I am in Sandy Eggo and looking for a 20-23' Seacraft too.

What did you give for it? Did you looksee at any others in socal that you passed on or know of any other ones you might suggest to check out?

I picked this one up for a reasonable price.. center consoles in so cal are hars to come by. And sea craft is rare on the west coast

Stripping it for a new gelcoat, and color sanding.. any suggestions?

Try wet sanding a section with 1200 grit, look around your area to find some "Aqua Buff" compound.... It is good stuff.

That gelcoat is thicker then you think !

My son does that for a living... You would be surprised at the results..
He wet sanded a section on the red 1968 27 SeaMaster about 5 years ago
and it is still shining !! I will get a pic in the morning for you...

Cheaper and easier over painting or re-gelin'..
