Default moisture in the stringers. Wellcraft coastal model.

BlankThe 1980's (including the '89's) Wellcraft Coastal, St. Tropez and Gran Sport had problems with stringer separation and hull cracks due to moisture infiltration.

Are you considering purchasing this boat or do you own it?

1989 Wellcraft coastal, 28 ft. 974 hrs. Recent survey revealed moisture in the stringers which are glassed over and some soft wood. Boat seems sound and dry. Any danger here- should repair be done now and if so, what ? Thanks Bill Fletcher
