Hi All,

New to the forum here. I just inherited my dad's old 1984 Express Cruiser 3100, as we unfortunately lost him this winter unexpectedly. I grew up on this boat and have fond memories of so many good times. I couldn't let it go!

Good news is it is in great shape, as my dad cared for it like a baby! But I have very limited info and looking for info like a owners manual, etc. online has brought little results. I'm having the boat hauled to me this spring and look forward to giving her another season on the water, especially since we know that dad wasn't done with her yet when he pulled her out last fall.

If anyone has a link to where I could find more info on her, owners manual, etc., I would be appreciative!

Thank you all. Looking forward to getting her on the water again in dad's honor!

Hi, I recently bought this boat and now i'm trying to fix some minor issues.
One of them is that there is no lock on the door, and it causes alot of vibrations when running at cruise speed.

I only have two holes and no idea what kind of lock was here in the first place, can anyone tell me what to get?

Looking forward to the discussions

Hi!
Daniel from sweden here, I bought myself an Eclipse last summer and though it would be fun to see what you guys are up to. And of course I have some questions about my lovely new boat.

Cheers!

Should I be using fuel additives in my 2018 Suzuki 200 4. If so what would be the best ones to use?

Hey guys! First time on the forum and I’m just looking for some help with some background on my boat. I grew up around boats but this is the fist boat I’ve owned (everything is slowly coming back to me) haha I have 4 small kids 2-7 and they just can’t get enough of being on our boat. I bought it last winter (11-2020) from a close friend of the original family. He had it for about a year and knew nuthin about the boat or really boats in general. It’s a 21’ 1983 and is in great shape! the tag says 200 Elite, but I’ve only found stuff on “210” Elite. I don’t have any manual or anything. I’m just wondering if anyone has any pictures of the inside. The back pad is gone and I’m trying to find pictures of what it’s supposed to look like. Also just wondering what motor it came with originally. Basically any knowledge of the bout would be great! Thanks for your guys time!!

Hello boaters,
Me, it's Loïc alias "lolo971", I come from Guadeloupe. My language is French but I will make an effort to communicate with you in English.
I am currently the owner of a "wellcraft martinique 3200" boat, and I am looking for practical information for the proper functioning of my machine.
A+

I have a 2002 Costal 330, and have owned it for 5 years. I purchase the boat knowing from a survey that the inner two stringers were bad.
Its was at that time we pulled the motors and repaired the inner stringers. There was no evidence from my knowledge that the outers were bad at that time. We developed a couple oil leaks on the engines so we pulled them to have them gone trough. The 8.1 horizons have around 1100 hours on them and we felt its was time. After pulling them We found that the outer and the mid stingers are bad too. We have an estimate for around $30,000 for the 6 stringers new hoses and repaint engine compartment. Repair is new epoxy not wood, as the inners were too. My question could we drill and fill with epoxy for cheaper and would you recommend it-Here are a couple pics of the boat 5 yeas ago when we repaired the inners stringers

Hope you can give me some advise or direction Thanks Steve

I have just purchased this boat and it will not fuel properly. Only will accept fuel very slowly. It appears to have a vapor recovery system mounted behind flip up rear seat. Any one else experiencing this issue?

Just an intro for North East North Carolina. Don't have a boat (last one was 2550 SX Sport Chaparral a couple of years ago) at the moment. Looking to acquire an early 2000's 252 Coastal for some cruising, fishing and to use in the USCG Aux.

Joined the site yesterday and have enjoyed browsing through the posts and see tons of good intel, especially from a few frequent posters.

Looking to be of some help to others, as I have been an on again / off again boat owner for the better part of 40 years.

Cheers
