Dog, Just something to keep in mind when looking at this '86 vs the '89 you mentioned. Wellcraft made a change to the floor in '88 I believe. They raised the floor up a good 2-2.5" in order to get a self-draining (overboard) cockpit. Might seem minor, but to me it is a big difference. I definitely prefer the deeper sides of the '86 - even if it means having the cockpit floor drain into the bilge. When your legs are leaning against the sides ... fishing in some rough water .... that extra 2-2.5" makes a difference - to me anyhow. However, I trailer. If you slip your boat, the overboard draining cockpit might be your preference.
