Cafe Racer new to Chesapeake Bay
 
1 Attachment(s)
Just purchased Stecz20's '89 Cafe Racer.
Many thanks to Dave & Chris with the transaction & the delivery. It looks & runs great. Here is a pic when I looked at it on the Hudson. I will post more pics of it on my lift in the
Magothy River soon. It was a real pleasure getting to know you guys. I'll keep in touch.

Thanks again.

I am hoping to add another one to the Chesapeake Bay (although much lower - SE VA) this weekend. Congrats - that's a great looking boat. Snap some pics of the inside - I am yet to see the cabin.

Sea-Dated 05-30-2007 09:14 AM

Congrats. You beat me to that boat by about a week.

Hot Duck 05-30-2007 09:31 AM

Congrats on the boat. How about bringing it to OC for the races the weekend of June 15? It should be a great weekend with lots of boats in town.

excalibur27 05-30-2007 10:01 AM

Would love to bring it.....but my schedule just won't allow it.
Thanks for the invite though. Maybe next year.

Also...............need more time to get familiar with the Cafe Racer. It's alot more boat than I am used too.

Boat is doin' FINE !!!!!
Operator needs some help though.

Had a bad back pain weekend & couldn't run the Cafe.
Doctor gave me a cortazone shot this morning.
Hoping that will help.

Any luck with the boat title & trailer registration ?

DNR stopped me & they want MD stickers ASAP.

They said they would give me a little time to get it squared away though.

Thanks again Dave.

I'll post pics on lift tomorrow.

Did you get all of Stecz DNA out of the boat? :D:D:D

These rigs are great wave crushers. My son use to sleep on the floor in the entrance of the cabin in his vest while we were running and flying in 4-5 footers and would not even wake up.

I think cowisl was on that ride.

Wait 1 minute, please

Did you have a Wellcraft Excalibur 26.5 then buy a Cafe in the Chesapeake ?

No, I had a Cig 28 SS before the Cafe Racer.
Did own an original 27 Excalibur Speedster couple of years ago though.
