Here's a question.
If the Wellcraft Serial number ends in the word, KAAMA, does it mean anything different from it being a KV or 377 Flat Deck?
Just curious.

I checked my hull # over the weekend and this is what I found
WELA4649V80F-377

My boat has race hatches and 475 HP turbo/speedmaster motors, but no Kaama on the hull sides of anywhere in the engine compartment. So is mine a Kaama or not? Were Kaama's available in 1980? Maybe MikeJ knows?

sounds like a wellcraft and a 1980 boat,the last 2 dig. of the hull number are the year of the boat!thats with all boats!the first dig. are usually the manufacture code or ID!

Letters are of same size/font and appear to be original.
Race Hatches, flat deck, fairing instead of glass shield and TRS's. Hull does have a notched transom. Some seem to, others do not.

Not sure what the diff. is, but the 475 Turbo motors are hot no mater.
