First of all I'd like to say Hi and I'm happy to have found these
boards.

I've been looking at Boats for about 6 months and have settled on a
power cruiser, used to avoid the hicky and beacuse it'll be my first
real boat. This boat seems to meet my needs and would love to hear
from
some experienced people for their comments.

2001 WELLCRAFT MARTINIQUE 2600

Volvo GS 5.7 Volvo Duo Prop W/ UNDER 130 HOURS on boat and less than
40
hours on new engine with warranty till Dec. 06...FRESH WATER ONLY.

Has all the goodies included and is a clean boat.

Thanks for your coments.



Just curious. Why the new engine?

Eisboch


Good point, but...........how can that be a bad thing, especially with
the
new one having less than 40 hours on it?

From what I know about the Wellcraft Martinique's (we looked closely at
a
32
footer before we bought our Maxum) they are built like tanks!

Built like a tank?

A tank?

Yep.....rock solid.........or at least the ones from the mid to late
1990's
were.


A solid boat?

Solid?

(You realize this could go on forever)


Yep.....so ask any further questions to: Greg Group, CO
http://www.greggroup.com/

He has seen plenty of them and rates them (as I did) as rock solid!


OMG! I forgot to tell you that he even thinks the newer Bayliners
are.....................(are you sitting down?)..........a good value for
their intended purpose..........near shore, inland lake or freshwater!

Imagine that. ;-)
