Seabrook	posted 05-20-2002 03:15 PM ET (US)             There was at least one forum discussion on the 21 and 23 WA a couple months ago. People seemed to like the 21' model better. I think the extra 2 feet of length did not merit the extra weight and horsepower needs. I own a 1991 21' WA that I am now selling. Nothing wrong with the boat, just bought it to take the kids fishing and they did not like it so the boat goes and I will return to my Montauk. Not sure about the 23 WA, but the 21' feels like a much larger boat than its length may suggest. It is 8'6" wide with a large bow. With the cabin set further back compared to most walkarounds, the boat looks like a small sportfisher. It really is a beautiful boat design. It is also rather fast. It has a 1995 225 Merc that pushes the boat 50+ MPH. You can see pictures of mine at http://members.fishingworks.com/Seabrook/photos.cfm If you know anybody interested in the 21' model, send them my way.
