Bill Farmer made the 27 Excalibur Speedster. Wellcraft bought the molds in 1985 and also called it a 27 Excalibur Speedster. They only made it for a couple years. Activator Powerboats now has the 27 molds. If your boat is 1984 or older chances are it's a Farmer. 1985 or newer a Wellcraft. Also if your VIN starts with WEL it's a Wellcraft. Looks good, what's the wind screen made of?

I JUST BOUGHT A 1984 WELLCRAFT EXCALIBUR 27 SPEEDSTER 534 HOURS WITH NOTCHED HULL 454 POWER TRS DRIVE SOLID BLACK GOLD STRIPES WERE ADDED WITH GOLD INTERIOR SERIAL NUMBER STARTS WITH WEL MINE MUST HAVE WHAT THEY CALL FLAT DECK , ALL I HAVE STICKING UP IS A 4 INCH WINDSHIELD.IM HEARING THESE ARE A REAL UNSAFE BOAT BECAUSE OF THE NARROW BEAM ? WHATS THE SCOOP.

84-85 for wellcraft. I think it is 6'6" at the transom. As far as being unsafe, I guess it depends on the driver. Never had any problems.
