I bought a boat, the registration says 1968 wellcraft. The model number on the sticker says DC2000V. When I look it up I cant find it. Here is a couple of pictures of the boat to help you out.

What do you need help with? Try posting in the Wellcraft forums. That's where the Wellies hang out.

You probably will not find out much since it is pre 1974

What do you mean it looks rotted? There are some soft spots in the floor but the main parts of the boat are solid. I'm trying to find the model, I know its a wellcraft but what type of wellcraft?

Not to discourage you, but take a stroll through the retoration forum. Chances are very good that soft spots in the floor mean rot in the stringers and or transom. Rot usually starts at the bottom (as that's where the water sits) and works it's way up to the floor.

All's not lost, my guess is you picked it up for a project, not a turnkey ready fishing vessel. When restored, it looks like it will make an excellent platform to fish, cruise, or lounge about on.
