Found a 1972 Wellcraft 165 with Mercruiser 140...located in sunny southern AZ. Price is right.
reading everything I can find on this site about Wellcraft...lots of positive comments about the smoothness of the hull design, etc
But also a lot of talk about deck, stringer and transom problems...
a) is the problem actually that widespread?
b) same issue with outboard and inboard motors?
c) dry southwest make a difference in the rot problem?
Best way to check before purchase?
Thanks
