JMurph, having an inboard in 23' cuddy is mostly for the same reasons as we love our inboard ski boats. Can't beat the reliability, smoothness of shifting and control under power. Only disadvantage is docking. Try and run an I/O at 12 MPH in rough seas, can't see over the bow. I can run at any speed at a fairly level keel with my cuddy and I don't have trim tabs.
I have owned a larger boat with an I/O, don't want another one. I could not keep it on a plane under 17 MPH and that is with the trim tabs and outdrive all the way down,sounded like it would blow up let along the bad fuel economy, there are lots of times that I would not want to cruise that fast in rough water. Just my $.02 |

jmurph...sorry about that, we were both right, or wrong, in 83 the boat you posted was called a sea nautique, and in 85 they put that name on the bigger one!

Oops. I meant what Mark said. That Fish Nautique with the pilot house does say Sea Nautique on the side of it. I remembered that thread and assumed that was what they all looked like.

I don't know why we're talking about Sea Nautiques, but they made two of them...the one you've got pictured above and one that was a pilot house Fish Nautique.
Yeah, I agree about that the $2300 boat better have a helluva trailer, looks right nappy. |

Mark, That looks pretty close to that boat add in the for sale section, but not exact. I still think it is an Allmand, which I would love to have one. And you and John are living in the area where they can be found. My dumb ass had one and sold it before I really knew much about them. Of course I'd love to have a Donzi too. Just takes money and a place to keep them. I just keep dreaming

MM,
The Sea Nautique looks more like a Fish Nautique with a pilot house. Sea Nautique Anyway, that Cuddy does look like a project. My real question is if you wanted a cuddy cabin on your boat, aren't there some better I/O options out there? Is there any benefit to having an inboard for that purpose? -JMurph |

Redneck, That's a "project" boat!? It better have one hell of a good trailer for $2300.00.

It could also be a "Sea nautique" I know they made a 27ft but they may have made a 24!!

I think he posted the wrong picture. Check Craigslist in Orlando...there is a 1989 Cuddy Nautique for sale for $2300 and the picture on there matches. It's for sale by a "Lee" which means both ads have the same year, same boat, same name of seller, same price, and one has a picture of a real "project" looking Cuddy Nautique. Might contact him and see if that's the case.
Here's the ad I'm referring to: http://orlando.craigslist.org/boa/305268590.html As for the boat pictured on this sight...could be an allmand. They were built in a few different configurations, but that boat almost seems bigger than the 23/24 allman...could just be the picture. |

That is not a Correct Craft Cuddy. I do not believe that it is a Correct Craft at all. Looks like it is an I/O with the water line running heavy in the aft portion?

A Florida Co. out of buisness now. They built a very solid, heavy, well built boat.

It could be a San Juan, but not a 78. I still think it's an Allmand, but not 100%. $2300 isn't bad for that boat and trailer. Someone should jump on that one!

I don't know, but if it is a CC, I'm thinking it's much older than an 89. Take a look a the 78 brochure. It kind of looks like the 24 foot San Juan with the hardtop. BKH

Did you guys see that in the for sale section?
It looks more like a John Allmand to me. I don't think that is a Correct Craft. What do you guys think? Scott |
