1996 Wellcraft Excell 21sx
21ft 5.0 volvo.
Just put a monster mt1 and cargo bimini this week!
The truck is my 97 f150 4.6 4x4.
Just picked the whole set up truck and boat, for five thousand. Then the tower was about 2k. What do you all think? This is the boat I learned EVERYTHING on.

Awesome...I like both of them, and congratulations. For 5k that's a smoking deal.

Congrats Chris! Your first boat will always be the best memories. My first was a POS and we had a BLAST with it! And Chatfield is where we took it all the time. That lake holds alot of great memories with the last two boats I've had and the current one.

Truck and boat for 5k? Hell, i'd probably pay just 5k for the truck! Good deal.

truck is worth near 5k and boat near 4k with how used it is. But the Old Man needed some money and I have maintained and used both for the last two summers. So my wife and I made an offer and he took it! Planing MY boats first trip to Powell with ME!
