Hi, new here and wondered if anyone can help ID this Wellcraft? It's a 21' walk-around I/O. Owner got it at auction and never put in the water, and doesn't know much about it. Thanks!

70's AIRSLOT model. They were a pretty good riding open water boat.

Thanks for the quick reply! I haven't looked at it yet, but do you know if it uses a Mercruiser/Alpha 1? Any thoughts on reliability issues or any known issues to look for? Also looking at a 92 Renken WA with Yammy 200 OB, but quite a lot more $

If you can get one guy to add the yamaha to the airslot, you have a great boat!!

Thanks for the welcome! yeah, I'd much prefer an OB arrangement. Have heard that many folks have converted from the I/O to OB, not sure how involved it would be. Any idea of the cost to overhaul that I/O setup? At 30yrs old, guess i have to assume it will need it now or very soon.
