WTB a fiberglass swim platform for an I/O sportsman 248

I finally looked at top speed with my GPS on my '84 248 Sportsman with a '99 5.7L EFI 260 hp engine. With four adults (I'd guess 750 pounds), 3 kids (another 200 pounds), full tank of gas (just splashed it Friday), a days worth of food, drink, gear and one kayak - I measured 38 mph at 4300 RPMs...

There have been a few recent threads on the For Sale/Wanted forum, so I figured I'd start a thread here on dream boats. Post pics. Hopefully it hasn't been done already too recently. Here's mine: http://www.arrowcatmarine.com/ The ArrowCat 30.

Well, I sold my V-20 four or five years ago and dropped off this forum. Now I have a little Caroliana Skiff and found www.carolinaskiffowner.com which is a great resource for owners of those boats. And that forum reminded me of this forum and how great it is for V-20 owners. I still also have...

i have forgotten my username and password for the gallery. can i retrieve them here? p.s. somebody on this page purchased Quahog last weekend and that's why i'm going in and updating my gallery p.p.s do you mind if a put some 248 Sportsman pics in the gallery?

Well, I brought home this boat today: http://www.wellcraftv20.com/gallery/view_photo.php?set_albumName=cat_1985&id=page7 , a 248 in I/O format with a 2000 5.7L EFI Mercruiser. This way I can do the camping I have said I want to do with my family and still fish by myself around the rocks. As...

I put in 4/28 and have been out twice since. Everything seems to be working fine, except the thottle gets stuck just past idle sometimes. Annoying when the motor is gasping. Most of the time I just pop it back in neutral and then put it back in gear and it's fine. I could probably use to spray a...

Okay, IF someone on this site wants to buy Quahog for $8,500 I'll sell her. I'm not listing her anywhere else and I'm not desperate to sell. However, I would like to buy something set up more for camping (i.e. Chris Craft Catalina) if I can sell Quahog to a good buyer. If not, we'll be happy to...

I have been absentee but I wanted to drop a line that I still LOVE my V-20 and this site. I no longer work in my solo office on the Saugatuck River in CT less than 4 miles from my boat. I'm commuting into NYC again now >:(. Big brother is watching my internet activity. Oh well, you can adapt to...

They're reading the serial # wrong, that is NOT an '86 hull! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/Wellcraft-cabin-cruiser-20-No-reserve_W0QQitemZ4569155003QQcategoryZ31271QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

It's been awhile since I posted some pics so here's a couple of Quahog pulling some R&R at Cockenoe Island in Long Island Sound on a hot August afternoon. We were swimming and digging clams with the kids on the island: I like the new motor a ton. I haven't used the GPS to get the top speed...
