Built for durability and seaworthiness, this 2008 Wellcraft 290 Coastal FB represents a classic American fishing vessel design. Measuring 8.62 meters in length with a 3.2-meter beam, this fiberglass boat offers a stable platform for both offshore fishing excursions and comfortable coastal cruising. The current owner, the first and only to date, has maintained the vessel in good general condition, noting that the majority of engine hours were accumulated at low speeds for trolling.
The interior layout is surprisingly versatile for its size, featuring three distinct cabin areas and one head, allowing for a total of 6 berths. The accommodations include a V-berth double in the bow, a secondary aft cabin with a French-style bed, and two Pullman-style single beds. The onboard kitchen is fully equipped with a sink, dual-source cooktop, refrigerator, and microwave, complemented by a complete head compartment with an electric marine toilet and shower.
Designed with the angler in mind, the deck is heavily outfitted for fishing operations. Standard features include a T-Top with protective covers, rod holders, a live bait well, and a dedicated fish storage locker. Practicality is enhanced by a sink in the cockpit and fold-down benches. This model also includes an auxiliary engine integrated with the hydraulic steering and autopilot system, ensuring precision during trolling maneuvers.
Technological integration is comprehensive, boasting air conditioning, heating, a radar antenna, GPS, an echosounder, and a VHF radio. Operational reliability is supported by electronic engine controls, hydraulic trim tabs, and a bow-mounted remote-controlled spotlight. The electrical system includes a battery charger, inverter, rectifier, and 220V shore power connection.
