New Boat Owner here, just brought home a 1985 St. Tropez and love her! The sliding main door is missing the lock, just an open hole, and we are having difficulty finding a replacement or something that will work.

Does anyone with a St. Tropez have pics of an original lock they can send me so we know what we're looking for, or suggestions for something that works so we can lock her up?

Thanks much!

Recently I replaced my wiper motor. I noticed that the switch reads wiper/washer. Did these boats come with a fill reservoir for the wiper/washer. I see washer lines on the wipers. I depress the switch, no fluid and no pump sound either, of course the Generic owners manual that came with these boats doesn't mention this. Thanks for any replies!

Captainzjim here,
I just acquired a 1990 NOVA 23and will let members know when it is water-ready
Looking for a boat manual

Hello, I have a 2003 Wellcraft Coastal 250. There is water on the floor in the cabin right below the step. I removed the panel and tightened all the connections on the vacuum generator and hoses. Replaced the panel and found water on the floor the next day. Any suggestions on what or where this leak is?
Thanks
Bob

I keep reading about these boats stringer issues?? can someone elaborate? I am looking at FriendShip on Lake Lanier and very curious.
FriendShip is an 88 7.4 Tropez.
Also how well do the V-Drive transmissions hold up? Thanks for having me and hope to be a wellcrafter soon.

E mailed Wellcraft and they said to go opposite of the raw intake on the port side. Which puts ducer on starboard side. Asking if anyone has installed this ducer (or similar)and where they located it. I see the bow strakes and was thinking of putting it halfway between the keel and the bow strakes (8" from keel) toward the stern. Any input is appreciated.

good morning...........new to this forum......i am thinking about the purchase of 1996 wellcraft excel 23SE.........i know wellcraft has a good rep, but since this boat is so old, i have the following questions.....1) can anyone out there tell me about their experiences with this boat? it will be used mainly on inland lakes, but would like to take it to the great lakes.....thoughts on reliability, does the draft represent an issue on inland lakes, etc.............second question, since it is so old, will i have any trouble getting replacement parts?......wellcraft doesn't make this model any longer, i believe, so i know support from the manufacturer.............any information that you can provide will assist in my purchase.....i thank you in advance
