Trying to see if anyone knows how to remove the bottom cushion on the Captains/Helm seat cushion so I can access the screws to tighten seat and armrests?

Hi, long time boater here, I just picked up this new-to-me boat, primarily for fishing in Upstate NY lakes and day trips. Has a 2024 Yamaha 150 on it, with 20 hrs... right there I knew I should take a close look at it.

This is the 7th boat I've bought (all used). I was looking at a couple Wellcrafts, the Robalo R180, Mako, etc. Stumbled on this boat that had almost everything I was looking for. First, it was previously owned by a charter guide, and he did a really nice job fitting it out, and clearly knew what he was doing and took care of it. 2nd, the original Yamaha 150 developed an irreparable problem so Yamaha replaced it for him under warranty last fall. Minn Kota Trolling motor with GPS (no more hauling up the anchor multiple times per day!), the 9.9 HP trolling motor is connected to steering and has it's own trim motor and throttle, which is really nice. Add to that Wellcraft's reputation, hull, and solid no-wood construction and it was an easy decision.

I've owned Sea Rays, Jeanneau NC 795 (still have that one), C-Dory22 Pilothouse, Checkmate, etc. Really looking forward to the Wellcraft, the deep V is quite nice and a pretty smooth ride for a 20'. Thinking about adding tabs but will see how it goes before I do that.

Hey All!

Just recently picked up an 88 190 classic Bowrider and just need to see if anyone has either a manual or can help with its startup procedure. Engine wont even crank and now I'm stumped. this boat was free and i am currently re-doing all the stringers and deck. any help is much appreciated!

We purchased a 1987 V20 steplift with a mercruiser I/O. There is a decal on the side of the boat at the fueling port that gives instructions on blower usage. All of the identifying labels were missing from the dash switch plate. If anyone has a picture of what switch is where on the switch plate I would appreciate seeing it.

Hi All - Mitch here from MA. Picked up a 2004 Coastal 252 at the end of last season. Prepping her now for this summer. Does anyone have any info / ideas / solutions on cracks on the inside of the hardtop? Leave or can they be repaired? Thank you
