Parker and Mcknew books list the Wellcraft 264/270 as a 270 Coastal in 1999. It has a 8'6" beam. Next they list just the 270 Coastal as being 2001 and later. The beam is 9'8'' What are the 2000 model?? Where are the listed beams for these two boats measured? I am interested in water line width, say at the stern. Will the waterline width be the same for both boats, just one is wider topside, hence a wider beam?? I am under the impression that the 2000 models had some boats in each category of beam width. Is that correct? Everything else being equal I want the wider beam, being under the impression it is also wider at the waterline and hence a little more stable at anchor or dockside. When I find a 2000 model for sale I don't know what the beam is. I found one close by and measured it--at the waterline it was 8'6". I didn't think to measure topside. Does any one know if the water line width on the 1999 270 is the same as on the later versions?? Thanks

I am curious has anyone had any issues with the livewell tub dropping? I went and looked the other day as I was buffing and waxing in prep for the upcoming boat season and noticed the insulation was broken and I could physically lift the tub up around 5". Is this covered by the warranty? If not how do you repair this?

Hello everyone is Anto, own a wellcraft coastal tournament 230 2001 model
Here in Dubai

Recently acquired 2013 252 Coastal FRP Hardtop - interested in other owners out there with tips tricks upgrades likes dislikes and you nameits. First new boat first twin boat for me so just shaking her down in 5 foot swell with sharp white caps and 20 knot winds to see she's made of. So far a few leaks and a few quirks but love the boat and the layout and although a head sea is a rough road, made 22-23 MPH between Seattle and Blake Island with trim tabs up and down and then powered up to 40MPH down the home stretch through Colvos Passage along Vashon.

Trying to replace the cabinet pulls on my 88 34' Gran Sport, the center line bolt hole to bolt hole dimensions are different than standard kitchen cabinet pulls; does anyone have any suggestions or know where to get proper cabinet hardware?

I am owner of a Welcraft Costal 26, 1990. I'm actually in the carribean sea, and enjoy, fishing, diving and just lay down on the beach.

Hi everyone,

I hope to be a 290 Coastal owner very soon. Looking at a low hour 2006 with twin 250hp Yamaha's on a triple axle trailer. We currently have a Meridian 381 Cruiser but I miss the fishing so we want to add to our fleet. We live on Vancouver Island and usually fish the West Coast when I have a fishing machine. Any feedback on the 290's would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance,

Greg W.

I just purchased and am refurbishing a 1991 St. Tropez 3200 LXC.
Does anyone have an electrical schematic for this model?
