your boat sure looks great. I am also running a 45sf here in daytona beach. Were you ever able to determine the manufacturer of the large glass engine sea strainers? I need to pull mine apart but cant find gasket kit. I can sure relate about the neverending attention the boat demands, but you have got to love it to do it. One interesting thing about these boats is the neophytes inability to identify it. The people on my dock have mistaken it for a Hatt,. Viking and even a Rybo. But they sure do know their searays and silvertons Any info you can provide would be greatly appreciated thanks. Paul
