Wellcraft Boat Owners Forum

I own a 2004 330coastal ...The most frustrating experience every year and on occasion is service and/or repair in one or both diesel engines (volvo penta D6). The reason is that in order to get access on both sides on each engine I have to unscrew and remove both front seats to the aft deck so the mechanic work on them. By removing the two hatches between the seats is not enough ! even after removing the aft fish boxes and hatches on ths aft deck doenot do anything to help solve this problem. I have seen that the next up model the 360 wellcraft model has a lifting system under each chair (electrical?) who does this job giving ample access to the engine room . Any 330 coastal owner has similar experience and how he deals with it? .Any help,suggestion,or directions to this problem will be highly appreciated.

A persistent bilge water on my 330 coastal ....any experience from owners of 330 coastal?

I installed a dry bilge pump that you can setup a schedule so it comes on a couple times a day. The pump on the dry bilge is a diaphram pump which it can run dry and it won't damage it. I've had one for 2 years and now my bilge stays dry.

I feel your pain with that seat removal. I have a 2003 Coastal 330. I belong to a membership owned and operated yacht club. Have to enlist strong backs to help me pull seats off. Got strap set up to pull seats every off season with crane. Take care of the guys that help me out with drinks at the bar most of the time.
