Hello all. Just made a swap with a local dealer from a 1990 Carver 4207 to a 1988 Portofino 43 with gas engines (P43). It's a long story...In any event, here I am needing owner manuals. Just like Carver, I know that Wellcraft won't have OEM equipment information (engines, generators, etc.). The dealer I'm working with has been told by previous owner that he would provide the boat's documentation; we'll see. In the meantime, if anyone has a copy of a general 1988 P43 owners manual they could point me to or send me (via PM), it would be much appreciated. I'll consider this my first boat because I didn't get to take out the Carver due to problems. Live and learn; hopefully this P43 will be a better experience.

Welcome Aboard, not to long ago someone posted a Wellcraft inboard manual, that's the one you want but you'll have to dig through some past posts

A simple search on the forum and it popped right up. Thanks CptBill.
