Wellcraft coastal 232

Spend the money on Chris Vos masterclass on making low ball offers. Totally worth learning. Lots of price drops right now. https://www.facebook.com/share/1EbUe5MKuC/?mibextid=wwXIfr

I guess it never hurts to ask. I know it would depend on a lot of factors but how much would you realistically think someone would move if you were going to try? More just asking to learn because I don't have much experience buying used boats. I think I'd have to go into the insulting range in this case

Insult away lol, the worse is going to tell you to pound sand lol, you could be surprised not much moving right now unless price is right, that boat has been for sale for probably a year

Take @Stizzla with you, maybe he can sweet talk the seller and get ya sweet deal like he got on his DE

Anyone have any first hand experience with these boats? I'm looking at taking a step up in size from my current 17 ft arima and am going to take a look at one of these. I was able to find a few threads to read on thehulltruth and it seemed to be all positive but its always nice to hear more input. Reading into the construction of the hulls they are all hand-laid fiberglass with no wood use for any of the structural elements. The boat in question is a 2007 coastal 232 with a 200hp yamaha and a 9.9 kicker.

The arima I have currently has been a great little boat but we are looking to upsize a bit to give ourselves some more opportunities and be able to spend the odd night in the cuddy. Any input is appreciates

A little late with this reply, but I absolutely love my wellcraft. 2005, 232 Coastal, with an etec 200 HO (G1). I don’t think I’d want a 4 stroke 200 for this boat… too heavy. The etec has a ton of torque and the boat itself rides very well. Well built boats!

Thanks for the input. They weren't really on my radar before the one I was going to have a look at, but they definitely are now

Does anyone have experience with a 232 Coastal Alaskan Cab? Curious about the size of the dance floor. Looks plenty wide, but curious if it’s a bit cramped from edge of Alaskan cab to transom. We’re going to look at one to purchase, but it’s a bit of a drive…. If there’s anyone on the South Island with a 232 coastal with an Alaskan cab that wouldn’t mind me having a look, it would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for the info everyone. Unfortunately it looks like any excitement for this one is done. I was supposed to be going to see it today but they now have a pending sale in place. The search continues. Thanks again for the quick replies

I have a 2003 Wellcraft 24 Walkaround with a 225 Merc Optimax (300 hours and sips fuel) and Merc 9.9 kicker. Fully rigged out with all new electronics radar etc. Little tight in the cockpit like mentioned before but I am 6'2 230 and move around easily. What did the coastal go for? I'm super happy with mine but looking to potentially sell and get something that can sleep 4 for fish/camp for 4-5 days. Send me a PM if you're interested
