That is pretty nice. What do you figure, about $35K?

That's sweet! Now if they would just tack on another two or three feet they might have me as a customer. Once they are on the used market anyway. I'm too cheap to buy new.

I see Seahunt has a new 25 dual console out now. Now that is a boat.

I would love to buy newer, but can't justify the cost for what is essentially the same boat. For the money I need something with more room that will ride better.

I'd figure more than 50K. I didn't even realize they were making boats again. After the Genmar debacle, I'd figure no one would be able to floorplan anything made by Erwin Jacobs. I work on a few later model Wellcrafts, I'm not impressed by their construction, fit or finish. For their price, they should be much better. I'd put them in the same catagory as Sea Fox, but they are priced upwards of Sea Hunts. If you like big DC's Grady has a hunongus one with twin 250s

Have not been impressed with Wellcraft for a very long time, actually somewhere around 1996 I believe

dbetterred 05-11-2011 03:16 AM

Grady has some really nice big dual consoles only problem is they cost as much as my house.:head:

I understand they are very well built, but not twice or three times better than the competition. I will never pay that much money for anything with a gelcoat.

if you think Gradys are overpriced, look at a Whaler or Scout

willy 05-11-2011 06:54 AM

thats why if you want one you wait until a nice one comes up for sale used, one two or three years old.. Those are priced at least close to where they should be priced originally. the bugs are worked out, often times the engine is not even broken in completely and if there are any structural type issues they start becoming visible after a little use.
the boat losses 25% of its value the minute you sign the dotted line.

Just like a new car or truck...and it's why I'll never buy new again...the one new purchase that still makes sense is to repower and older hull w/a new outboard...and that only if one plans to keep it for a LONG time...which typically around here is the case...we've got the 'LIFETIME" boaters here on V20.com...
