I to own a Wahoo. It is a 23 ft center console. I love the boat and have been 45 miles off shore with it. It is a well built boat and many have told me the hull strength is one of its best features. I have had my Wahoo airborn more than once and I take comfort in this knowledge, even if it is lore. The company has been bought out and I think that Robalo owns the company. If you find out anything, let me know please.

Wahoo boats were built for several years in Hanover county - just outside Richmond, virginia. reputed to be well built and very strong - - often compared to Boston Whalers. Company was bought out several years aog and it appears that everything was liquidated. Could have been a move to eliminate Wahoo from competition. Forget who bought them but sounds like something that OMC might have done.

I recently bought a 1991 Wahoo 26' Sportfish and am trying to find an owner's manual. Were you able to locate any resources for Whaoo?

Thanks.

Todd, I bought a 1991 Wahoo 26' Sportfish this year and it did not come with an owners manual. I am have a difficult time locating things on the boat (ex. bilge pumps)is there any chance of you copying your manual for me. I would be more than happy to pay for any copy or mailing costs.

Thanks,

Mike Campbell

Robalo bought them. Maybe they have the information you wanted. I had the opportunity to visit the plant near Richmond. The owner was very proud of his product. Sorry to see it go. I would love to have the 23' walkaround. It would be great with some four-strokers.

Actually, the name was "Wahoo!" (exclaimation point was part of the name).

I've been away for a long time. I couldn't log in as "Todd Schwartz" and had to switch to Tower Todd now.
I sold my Wahoo recently and bought a 28' Albemarle. I did not have a manual for it. I do have a copy of the brouchure that has some specs on it if anyone would like a copy. Just send me a PM with you email and I'll send it to you.
During the time I owned the Wahoo 2600 I crawled through / replaced / upgraded just about everything on the boat so if you need help with something, let me know.

I seem to recall that the Wahoo line was a line of vest pocket sportfishermen built by Pacemaker?

Has anyone had any luck in finding a Wahoo! manual? I've just bought a 1991 Wahoo 26ft CC and would love to get my hands on a copy of a manual. Would be happy to pay someone for the effort scanning, etc. Thanks!
