Built for comfortable cruising and fishing alike, this very low hour, well-maintained 2003 Wellcraft 270 Coastal is ready for long days on the water. This vessel was recently re-powered with a Mercruiser 377 MAG MPI EC engine with only 198 hours, and is paired with a Bravo Three outdrive.
This vessel features an air conditioned cabin with a refrigerator, stovetop, microwave, and an inclosed head with shower, making overnight stays feel like home. The wide, open deck gives plenty of room for multiple anglers, and a massive 45 gallon livewell keeps bait fresh while running to your fishing grounds. Twin insulated fishboxes keep your catch cold.
At the helm, Garmin electronics keep track of your waypoints and course, and give side scan, down scan and traditional 2D CHRIP sonar capability. The vessel is also equipped with two VHF marine radios, a fuel monitoring system, power up/down windlass, spotlight and much more. Also included in sale is a custom Bimini top that can be installed with the hard top removed to allow for lower bridge clearance.

Wellcraft 270 Coastal: BoatTEST Review
Overview
The Wellcraft 270 Coastal is a versatile addition to the popular Coastal series, designed to accommodate both serious fishing activities and family outings. This model features overnight accommodations, making it well-suited for active fishing families seeking a boat that balances functionality with comfort. Constructed with an all-composite transom, the 270 Coastal offers durability and long-term reliability. It is positioned as a slightly smaller alternative to the well-established 290 Coastal, providing easier trailering and access to favorite fishing locations without sacrificing key features.
Exterior Design and Deck Layout
The 270 Coastal presents a fine-riding hull with thoughtful access points and protective features. Forward access to the bow is available via side walkways with molded steps from the cockpit, or through a walkthrough windshield with three steps built into the dash, though overhead clearance in this area is limited. The bow area includes a raised top to enhance cabin headroom, an oversized hatch for ventilation and natural light, and a pulpit equipped with anchor rollers and chute, with an optional Maxwell windlass available. A hardtop provides substantial sun and rain protection, featuring three rocket launcher rod holders on each aft leg and a central spreader light for nighttime deck illumination. The stern incorporates an integrated swim platform with a large engine splash well and a standard dive ladder that stores conveniently on the transom. A swim shower is located at the walkthrough panel for rinsing off after water activities. The center transom seat folds out for comfortable seating and can be slid aside to reveal access to fuel water separators, through-hull shutoffs, and other mechanical components. Battery management systems are accessible behind a panel on the starboard transom wall.
Cockpit Features
The cockpit is designed with functionality and convenience in mind, featuring a gutter system that efficiently channels water to scuppers at the corners. Standard cockpit bolsters and wide gunwale tops accommodate trolling gear, with two rod holders on each side and space for three rods under the gunwale tops. A raw water washdown on the port side facilitates deck cleaning after fishing. Dual insulated fish boxes beneath the deck include stainless steel lift rods, gaskets for noise reduction, and overboard drains and pumps. Behind the companion navigator seats, a large locker with sail track storage for seat cushions tips up to provide access to mechanical components and an optional generator. The starboard side aft of the helm houses a bait station equipped with a covered sink, a 42-gallon Kodiak Pro-Flow bait well with a clear lid and rounded interior, a positive seating latch, cutting board, and knife and tool organizer.
Helm and Electronics
The helm area is thoughtfully arranged to accommodate a wide range of electronic configurations. The test model featured Yamaha digital gauges positioned to the left, along with optional windlass and stereo remote controls. The standard steering wheel was upgraded to an aluminum three-spoke design with a speed knob. The helm bolster lifts to serve as a leaning post, providing ergonomic support for stand-up driving. The companion navigator station includes a crescent-shaped bench seating at least two people, with a tackle locker containing three organizers and a drawer beneath the centerline bench, and additional dry storage under the main seat.
Interior Living Spaces
Below deck, the 270 Coastal offers comfortable amenities despite its compact size. Entering the cabin via flying steps, the galley is located on the port side and includes a power distribution panel aft, a microwave oven, and a Clarion Marine stereo with an optional DVD player. The granulon countertop features a molded-in sink and a single burner cooktop, while a dual-voltage Norcold refrigerator is installed below. Forward of the galley, a cozy dining area converts into a double berth, complemented by reading lights and a large mirror in the bow. The fiberglass head compartment includes a vanity top with a pull-out shower wand, medicine and storage cabinets, and a vacuum flush head. The outboard engine configuration allows for a mid-cabin space beneath the cockpit, which can serve as additional sleeping quarters for children or as a large storage area when not in use.
Power and Performance
The 270 Coastal measures 28 feet 1 inch overall length including the pulpit, with a beam of 9 feet 9 inches. Its dry weight, excluding engines, is 7,225 pounds. The draft measures 19 inches with outboards trimmed up and 34 inches when fully down. Powered by twin 200 horsepower Yamaha four-stroke outboard engines, the boat delivers a smooth ride even in choppy, wind-blown waters. Maneuverability is excellent, with easy handling out of the dock and precise turns underway without speed loss or skipping. The optimal cruising speed is 27.1 miles per hour, providing a range of approximately 302 miles on a full fuel tank. The maximum speed achieved during testing was 46.1 miles per hour.
Conclusion
The Wellcraft 270 Coastal successfully combines the features of a serious fishing boat with the comforts required for family outings and overnight stays. Its manageable size makes it ideal for trailering and accessing a variety of fishing destinations, while its durable construction and well-thought-out design elements support both performance and convenience. With ample storage, functional cockpit and helm layouts, and comfortable interior accommodations, the 270 Coastal stands out as a solid choice for anglers seeking a versatile and reliable vessel.
