Just a Cool old Icon of early offshore boats, never owned one but love the lines like a 57 Chevy.

Back in the early 70s my school chums dad bought this exact boat in this ad , its a early Wellcraft before they redid the deck mold.

My dad bought a 26 Monza. These were the only offshore boats in Grand Haven MI back in 73 other than a 18 Donzi named Foxy Lady.

100% agreed.

Timeless lines.

I particularly like the orig, twin inboard versions.

Always wanted a twin IO 25 though.

Any of them would make great OB conversions 😉

Cary 29 10-13-2023 09:42 AM

Timeless just like the Formula 233. Brownie instrumental with both...

'Left-Coast-Living' Wellcraft 250 Nova boats. Santa Barbara one above. Dana Point Harbor one below.

Back East. First the real Nova Marine deal, second a Wellcraft-made one.

An unknown one, back in black from the dead. It may be a Allmand but it's a carbon copy of a Nova Marine and only the 16th made by them and was John Allmand's personal boat at one point.

Picture was taken when almost finished. It's done and sitting for the last 12 months under cover waiting on its first test drive. I restore boats but the doctors have to restore me before I can.

larslindroth sadly the owner of the yellow Wellcraft recently passed away and the boat was forsale. Don't know what happened after. He was part of my ACBS chapter. I had my red Allmand Nova 19 sitting in side by side slips during a boat show a few years ago. We were Brownie's baster kids section that year. Good times!!
