I was at St. Marks, FL last week and saw a new homebuilt boat on a
trailer. She was narrow and pointy and seemed flat bottomed. Really nice work with a center console. I looked at the stern and saw a rudder and tiller and then a bronze prop. This made me look under her. Yep, sure enough, she ahad the inverted V of the Seabright. I talked to the mechanic who was there and all he knew was that she had an inboard diesel and did not know where the owners were. Boat was FL registered but the truck pulling her had TN tags. The Seabright is designed to be ultra-efficient although she seems to just be a flats boat. Her sides are not as high as the other Tolmans and she has no deadrise at all. However, her bronze prop is completely protected and I do like that tiller. I doubt that there are more than a dozen of these boats in existence so Idda liked to talk to her owner. |
