I purchased this boat in August of 2006 from Alexi at Boostpower. He owned boat and rigged it for his parents in 2002. I am second owner. Alexi acquired boat from Wellcraft as Light Lay Up with no rigging. Alexi was driver for Scarab racing in late 90's (Conseco Wellcraft Scarab) with Nigel Hook on throttles . See ( Poker Runs America -Speed Zones) for details. As far as you selling it in June of 2007, please go to Florida Power Boat Club web site (April 2007 Spring Key West Run) pictures, look for pictures with Andreasen as identifier. You will see my family and friends had a great time on "YOUR BOAT."

This boat was also showcased (one page of Boating in Paradise) and On (Sunsports TV) Spring Key West Run.

Both of you are right. I was at the factory when the original owner brought it back & sued Wellcraft because he claimed it was unstable over 110. The owner ordered it special & Donnie Wadek rigged it. I could've bought the boat from the factory with no motors for less than 80k. I had a good friend that was the New England area factory warranty rep & he introed me to Donnie. Wellcraft didn't fight the lawsuit they just took the boat back & gave the guy his money back. Donnie told me the spent alot of extra time in knife edging the bottom & yes it was a light kevlar layup. The alt owner did have big innovations in it with #5 drives. Donnie told me he got it up to mid 1-teens on Sarasota bay. The took it up to Chesapeake & spooked himself at a little over 110. That is the story on that boat I had forgot all about it until I read this post & I looked at that boat a dozen times in the claasifieds.
