EBBTIDE BOATS

[codyray]

I cannot seem to find ANYTHING or very little about my boat. I purchased a used 21 ft ebbtide 210 campione and runs great. I have heard a few people say they were very well made. However, they apparently went out of business or sold it in 2013 so I cannot seem to find any info or parts specifically for the boat. Does anyone have any experience with ebbtides or know the best place to get boat specific parts?

Welcome aboard codyray:

Ebbtide is still in business EBBTIDE BOATS. I would suggest most people would consider them an entry to mid level boat manufacturer. I've been around a couple of their older tri-hulls and they weren't bad. Dunno' much about the newer ones.

But with used boats, it's mostly about condition more than anything else. Whatcha' tryin' to find out about yours?

Thank you! Ebbtides website still works but the phone is disconnected. It was supposedly sold in 2013 and no longer manufactures boats. I was just looking to find additional parts or accessories specific to the boat. A manual going over everything in the boat ect. I googled for manual nothing comes up

Our son still has his 1996 Ebbtide 192SE he bought new because in his opinion it was very well made and it looks and runs great. Most owner's manuals are very generic with the emphasis on safety which is widely available. Parts and accessories probably will have to be found at aftermarket suppliers or maybe salvage yards. The engine/drive system or outboard motor is usually the main focus of attention and there are plenty of sources for that info if you will provide some details of what you have. Good luck!

LOL ... I started typing exactly what Willy said Gotta' learn to read "gooder"

Gotcha' a manual for the drive, and then ask questions about fittings here.

Thank you Guys. The engine and drive is a mercruiser 5.0l I/O with an Alpha drive.. so very common so I'm good with those.. I was looking more for replacement parts for like the Dash, apholstry, accessories specifically made for the boat.

In my experience, if you're not working with a brand new boat, it's easier and cheaper to have those things custom fitted to the boat.

All it takes is a little fabrication skill.

Understood..... I figured it would be a little easier to just buy a direct replacement part..Ill look into fabricators

Yeah your best bet is to fabricate your own things or sometimes you might get lucky with eBay.

Vinyl wrap can make your dash look nice and new. Find an upholstery shop for upholstery.
