What is the reputation of wellcraft boats? This one is a 19' open bow with the 170hp motor with a mercrusier outdrive. Thanks for the advice!

Honestly? This is about the worst boat out there for moisture in the hull, stringers, and transom. Problem is maximized if has been stored uncovered. Good luck.

170 Hp ..........is that a 470/170 motor? AKA 3.7 liter?

Please read up on the 470/170 if it is....... and be prepared :redface: for some pages of horror stories.
