Boats on Used Victoria and Other Areas


23’ Hourston Glascraft Down to 67k commercially certified. Anyone check it out? Started at 80
Looks like a great boat, but surprised to see it only holds 65 gallons of fuel.

For comparison, a 23 foot Grady comes with a 140 gallon tank.

I wonder how much structural damage does such heat have on aluminum??
A major concern in the design of land-based and marine aluminum structures is fire safety. This concern is exacerbated for aluminum alloys due to property degradation which occurs at temperatures as low as 150°C with a 50% yield strength reduction at ~275°C. melting point, in the range 600-660°C.

I feel like this has been for sale for a while? With a new 21 foot hewescraft or kingfisher on sale and not selling at 115k or so what is a 10 year old VI made boat worth?

Not really a surprise on fuel tank. 23 Hourstons came with a belly tank 45ish gallons and option of side tanks that would increase capacity. This 65 gallon tank is probably either larger than original or the boat has the optional side tanks.

I personally don't like the changed look of the raised cabin roof. The original cabin was high enough for my 6'6" brother and had a sleeker look.

I'd also want to know how long ago the previous owner replaced the stringers and have those checked out, along with the transom.

That houston has been updated for 7-8 months. Tough to sell the old houstons for 70k without recent and well documented structural refits. This one doesn't have that. It's a 30k plus shop bill when you have to gut one.
