Wellcraft Catalogs

[bigshrimpin]

Hey Guys!!

I have put these catalogs on ebay.

This is a good way to support the site ;) *

All the $$ from the sale of the catalogs will allow us to purchase the remaining 17 catalogs and maybe reimburse Labii (for emptying his wallet on the 71 and 75 catalog). *Thanks for your support!! *

Catalog years we still need:

72, 74, 77, 78, 79, 80, 83, 84, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 93, 95, 96.

(I have the 92 and BigCat has the 81 and 82) *They'll be in the gallery soon. *

Bigshrimpin, I have 94 catalog and that is really the only one I want. Besides I am too technophobic to do ebay.

However, I have an idea that would be good to let us support the site, as well as promote the site.

I have seen your signature banner www.welcraftv20.com on THT. It is really sharp looking and it would make a great patch for a cap. Caps are great promotional advertising, because they get worn much more than tshirts. I would pay for at least one to enjoy, and help support and promote the site, and I would bet that most members would also.

This site will make shirts, hats what ever you want. And they will make 1 or 100 !!

I might order a shirt or hat with my Macojoe name and pic on it??
Might be worth a shot??

Just noticed that the signature -- logo thing I was talkin about, is at the top of this page. Duh is me. ::)

Would also make a great tshirt or coffee mug, but if you had to choose just one item to get started -- I would go with caps.

We were just talking about coffee mugs this past weekend. My father in law has a 1957 Chris Craft so of course he has a Chris Craft coffee mug. I said I'll have to get me a Wellcraft mug. It could be a Wellcraft V-20.com mug. I wouldn't mind having a 1990 catalog too. I'll support the site which ever way. Bill Mc ;D

Thanks MC, MJ, and Seakindly . . . I'll see if I can get a small order of caps and mugs made up. I'm really just interested in locating the rest of the catalogs and keeping you guys happy ;D

Hey Bigshrimpin, since THT has about a million members, have you ever made a post over there asking if anyone has or knows anyone with any of those old wellcraft catalogs? They are a pretty helpful bunch of boaters over there, and I would think that some would be willing to help locate,donate, or loan a catalog for such a worthwhile cause. Another possible source, if they don't hate us already, -- Wellcraft. Also worth a try -- any longtime Wellcraft dealers.

[bigshrimpin]

I tried wellcraft a few times, Mike Carr - one of the customer service guys scanned a few v20 images from different catalogs years, but could not loan me the catalogs. *

I tried a few long-time dealers without success. *Every place that I called seemed to only have catalogs from the last few years. *I certainly have not exhausted this resource, but I was a little discouraged.

thehulltruth is a good suggestion . . . not sure why I didn't think of that. * *???

[bigshrimpin]

I just posted a thread on thehulltruth, we'll see what happens.
