Just purchased a 1985 23 ft. wellcraft 230 aft-cabin. It has been in boat-motel storage since 2000. Engine was rebuilt in 1999 and has110 hours on rebuilt engine.
I have no manuals or papers on boat except the engine rebuild bill and work sheets.
I am trying to get Identification model information on the boat, engine and out-drive.
Can anyone help me on these questions? Wellcraft could not or would not help me.
What is weight of complete Boat
What is correct HP of this 1985 350cid.Mercuriser engine.
What is the model of out-drive? All number are missing.
Out drive looks small to me for this size engine, but what do I know.
What is the gear ratio of out-drive?
What should be the approximate maximum speed of this boat?
Prop seems mighty small for this size boat.
This is the specifications which I have obtained so far
230 Aftcabin 23 ft long 8 ft beam
1985 model
Hull number: WELCO 2871486 230
Engine serial number #14010207
350 CID. May be 260 or 270 HP ? V-8
Quadrajet 4 bld carburetor
Total engine hours: 658 HR.
Drive unit serial # 691186?
Transom Assy. serial # 6928653
Prop. # 48 88440A-4, 19 Pitch x 14? dia.
Thanks anyone
