The only advice I can give you or anyone buying a boat, old or new, if you don’t like working on your boat ( repairs and waxing and upkeep) don’t buy one. I love working on my boat .not rebuilding her just maintaining her Some people said to me. Why don’t you buy a new boat. Why? I have the...

Engine 150 1988 mercury she came with a 115 and the guy I bought it from put on the 150. Still going strong. Knock on wood The fuel tank was replaced. A very long time ago. When I first got her I almost broke down on the water but didn’t. I had the fuel tank replaced with a 55 gallon plastic...

Personally I think if anyone stood on the motor and bounce up and down the transom would flex , if it didn’t it would crack Bridges bounce up and down and move all the time. Me? I would leave it alone and go fishing. I don’t know why wellcraft put on those aluminum caps on the transom...

Me,I Do. 1978 V20. And love her , I think the newest V is still going to be 30 years old . Mine is 47 years old and still is better looking than the newest boats made today. I love looking at my boat and all the other Vs out there

Did you try looking for a used outdrive? Lake lenier liquidators in Georgia. They should have one. Check out there website. You can call then too

Here in New Jersey the stripe bass are biting but it’s still cold for me. 70 s is the perfect temp. We have a while to get to the 70s. Nice fish Phat

That’s a great idea, lower the bow and wait than raise the bow. Smart I have one rod box now in my garage and I am going to fiberglass the back where the cracks are then the front and spray paint I like that idea about the fuel leak.

I don’t know what’s happening. Ford doesn’t make cars only trucks and suvs. Trying to force garbage on us. And the prices are crazy.

“”on a trailer. Phat I know what you’re thinking. I didn’t put any gas in the rod holder. I’m 99 percent sure 👍 my two sons said that too. I hope I did but I don’t think so. I’m pretty careful about that Also ,Intook the rod box out to look and brought it hope to fix a few cracks and almost...

Need help. I just came back from my boat. I took off the panels, not the floor panel but the access floor panel. Removed the rod box to see. Again filled her up. And. Nothing, no leak. I’m confused, 🤔 when I filled her up last time she was pouring out fuel. About a gallon. From the bilge plug...

That looks like an Italian design. I don’t like those Italian designs. And I’m Italian. Go figure

1978.

I have a 1978 Steplift. 47 years older then the 2025 model. You would think that it would be so much better then a 1978. But my / our Steplift are 100 times more classier and much better design. If I had a new wellcraft like the one pictured. The first thing I would do is to put a for sale by...

I wish I was close I would definitely be interested. I will reach ou5 to you when I’m heading in that area

I think they are basically the same. Parts should be interchangeable. I’m going to Georgia in the near future I will reach ou5 to you when im going down. I really just want one for parts for my engine. Parts are getting hard to get. Does that have a clam shell cowl?
