Default Opinion on Seaswirl Striper 21 foot walk around


I have a Seaswirl 17.5 footer.

My overall impression is real nice - it handles chop at least as well as my
older 4-Winns did. Wife says better. I took it about 7 miles out to sea a
few weeks ago and was impressed enough that's I'd take it out to Georges
bank - on a good calm day.

It seems very well built overall - but I wasn't impressed with the cooler
mounting or the swim ladder mounting. Also they used silicone seal instead
of 5200 on the motor mounting - I don't know if this was at the dealer or
the factory though. The rub rail isn't top shelf stuff - but works ok.

The underdash wireing was "so so" I've seen neater - I've seen a lot worse -
LOL.

I'd endorse the boat - yes.

I ran into another guy with one and he liked it too - I asked him.

What's everyone's opinion on the Seaswirl Striper 21 foot walk around?

I'm
looking at a new 2004 21 foot walk around with Volvo Penta 4.3L GXi 220hp
I/O. Standard features include the aerated live baitwell, 2 fish lockers,
recessed tackle box, built in swim platform with 3 step ladder, full set

of
Faria guages, self bailing deck, sea water washdown, etc. Extras include
fresh water washdown, dual batteries, AM/FM/CD player, mini galley, porta
potti with pump out, hard top with full curtains, starboard windshield
wiper, rear seats and trim tabs. Dealer is giving me a good price...$35K
out the door...NY tax, freight, etc included. Also includes galvanized
roller trailer with fold away hitch. Any input appreciated. Don't just
say it sucks...let's have some facts. Thanks.
