Hi Guys I know its not a V20 but it is a Wellcraft. I'm a New Member to this site and it looks like you guys have a lot of knowledge about these Wellcrafts. I purchased this boat last weekend and can’t wait to get her out on the water. When I sea trialed her I was surprised at how well she handled the chop for an 18 footer, but was also surprisingly stable. I can’t wait to get her out on the water again, but I have some odds and ends I want to do to her first.

looks good, StinkyHooker has one of those 18 footers, he should be able to help you out, but it is hunting season, so he aint here to often right now.....

good luck and have fun with her:beer:

The johnson is a 115 and seems to push it pretty well. It topped out at 36 with 3 people on board the last time I had her out.

To be honest I have no idea what the weather is going to be like down here, were headed to my inlaws in Florida for Thanks Giving. Lately the weather has been wacky, cold some days warm others. This morning the lawn had frost on it, but it warms up to about 60 by lunch time.

Boat looks good, is that a frame for a dodger on the bow?

Good Luck with it:beer:
