What do yall think bout this one?

[randlemanboater]

I'm told its a mid 80's, has some gouges in the side and soft spots in the floor. Garagenc went by and took the pics and inspected. Don't know the condition of the sea drive but planning a bracket boat anyway. Transom did not flex when garagenc did the jump test.

The asking price is $1250.

[mauryc]

Where is it located?

[msbhammer]

Randleman, where in the hell did you find that at ????
Thats a rare one, the guys on this site would die for it.
Bracket for sure, so add in another $1700.00 for a full size bracket platform, if buying the bracket new. If you dont grab it, somebody else will quick.

[Kajun]

if you dont buy it...send me a PM with its exact location in NC ;D sure would look great with my 140 on it lol

[reelapeelin]

Man!!!...a duallie w/ a full transom :o ... rare indeed ;) ...if the motor runs at all, WELL worth askin' price ...can run it for a while anyway, then bracket and OB 8) ... boat looks good ;D ...

[randlemanboater]

Garagenc gets the credit for finding it.

It is in an "undisclosed location" that I will gladly disclose if I decide against it.

It's a 5 hour trip, one way, from me. *As soon as I can, I'll go check it out and get my "final answer".

[phester]

a full transom, bracketed dually,[w/a full enclosure] would be the ideal boat! I would seriously pursue that one! Hope it all checks out.

[Blue_Runner]

Slap an enclosure like the one Lumberslinger has on his and that boat would have some mojo. :D

[msbhammer]

Thats a great price, does the trailer come with it ?
You could pick it up for a leat a 1000 bucks.

[msbhammer]

Kajun must be getting wood on this one. ;D

[macojoe]

As Moderator I demand location!!!!!!!!

For $1200 theres not much that would stop me from getting it!!

Hell priced at that the guy has no idea!! offer a grand and drag it out as fast as you can!!

If not I will get it, and travel for it! I will sawp all from my boat and sell my hull!

This will get the find of the year award, based on price and model!

[charlie_the_tuna]

NEXT.

[Skools Out]

you can bracket it and look just like BGA's boat. where's she located?

[garagenc]

hey guys;
I know where a mid 70 cuddy v-20 is that has a enclosure still intact. The boat is in bad shape but it has a lot of good salvageable parts (windshield, I think I remember that it had the rod box inserts that were in pertty good shape). I might be able to get that one for someone for little of nothing if anyone is interested.

[Skools Out]

hey what are they asking for that project / parts boat does it have trailer and where is she?

[msbhammer]

Anymore news on this boat. Does the motor run ?
I'm not a dual console guy, but this is a good deal. You cant beat the price.

[Airslot]

That could be the start of a great project. Somebody could wind up with a great dea on that one.

Airslot

[garagenc]

skool
Are you asking for the one randleman is looking at or the other one I found?

I have a lead on a V-21 (1992) enclosure, all electronics on it with a yamaha 225, the boat and motor has less than 325 hours on it and has been kept in a garage all the time.

This boat looks like a new boat, but I'm sure he is going to ask top price but I know the boat and its worth it.

[Skools Out]

the other one that's a parts boat?

[reelapeelin]

Keep us posted on your "find"...pix if ya can...sounds interesting ;) ... and whatever you do, DON'T let me find out where it is !! ;D ;D ...

[msbhammer]

5 hours away, hmm, must be in the NC. area still I guess. Anymore gossip or scoop, or even pictures of the good deal. Somebody go and take her for a test spin.
MJ might be looking at air fair rates to fly down and grab her. ;D

[randlemanboater]

I promise that I will let you know where the dualie is, after I buy it, or pass on it.

I see Hammer is adding up the clues, you are correct, it is in NC, but just by a little.

[parishht]

COuld it be in Elizabeth City?

[randlemanboater]

It could be, if someone pulled it over there.

[msbhammer]

Randleman, so when ya gonna check her out. Members are waiting for some good pictures and gossip. ;)

[randlemanboater]

This week I work Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri, Sat, Sun. I have to take care of things around the house Wed. I hope to go next week. I only work Wed, Thurs next week.

[macojoe]

I am off till Thursday, were is it I go look on your behalf!! ;) ;)

[randlemanboater]

I can't figure out if you guys are encouraging me to get this boat because you want me to become a part of the brotherhood of proud V owners, enjoying the fun and fellowship that only the owner of a V-20 can fathom.

Or is it that you want someone else to share in your pain, owning an old boat that needs endless repairs and will end up costing twice as much as you can ever imagine.

HHHHHMMMMMMMMM.

[randlemanboater]

MJ

You show up here in NC, I'll give you the location.

[Skools Out]

either Elizabeth City or Camden, NC

[macojoe]

Or is it that you want someone else to share in your pain, owning an old boat that needs endless repairs and will end up costing twice as much as you can ever imagine.

If you are not willing to do this, then don't buy a boat!! Even a new boat will need work in short order!!

Don't kid yourself, you will sink $$$ in any boat you buy!

Give up the hunt for a boat now!! Take up something easy, like knitting!

[msbhammer]

AHHHHH, KNITTING...That was a Good One MJ !!!! ;D ;D

[msbhammer]

MJ, dont we have a V-20 Bylaw that states, that the location of any v for sale must be given up and Posted. ;)

[macojoe]

No but we could make one!! ;D

[msbhammer]

I second the motion. Do we have a third. ;D

[msbhammer]

Time to give it up Randleman. ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Welllll, I suppose a little of both ... RB's a sharp cookie for a jr member ;) ...


... the duallies are fairly rare, specially a full-transom dual...I just like to see new boats come to the board w/ an owner who's gonna fix 'er up...and you sound like you're gonna do a first-class job on whatever one ya get ;) ...

[msbhammer]

We want ya to buy it, fixer up, take a bunch of pics.
You will always have our support when things go wrong. *;)

[randlemanboater]

Skools got it.

It's in Camden NC at the Causeway Marina.

Call Jerry 252-338-3350

Have at it.

[reelapeelin]

RB...Hammer just posted a NICE on in Ga ... I think good price 8) ...

[msbhammer]

So what ya going do, start knitting or look for another one with less work ?
Really thought you were gonna hop on it. ???

[randlemanboater]

Knitting

[msbhammer]

Come on now, no knitting on this site. Your in the Brotherhood now. We just need to find ya a good V.
You a cuddy man or a CC man.

[macojoe]

Thats not fair!! >:( Skools has enough boats!!

[randlemanboater]

Really I am going to wait a little while. I don't have the time to do a resto on a boat right now and don't have the money for a nice one. I have a perfectly good boat, it is not exactly what I want but it works fine for 75% of my boating.

And I have a GREAT motor!!!!!

I may decide to sell my rig, and then I should have plenty of dough for a nice V. It's just hard to decide to get rid of a perfect motor (except for being a 20"er). And yes I know that I could get a V with a 20" transom but I already have a boat with a 20 inch transom that I don't care for in the ocean.

So there you go.

As for cuddy or cc, I like a cc, but that dual console seems to be the perfect family boat that you can fish with. My current boat has a "cuddy sort of area" under the bow and the kids like getting under there in their bean bag chairs for a nap now and them.

[msbhammer]

Post a pic. of your Starcraft.

[randlemanboater]

I tried the other day, they wouldn't show up. guess they were too old. I'll get some new ones soon and put em up.

[randlemanboater]

Well, who drove down there and bought it?

[msbhammer]

Not Me, I'm a cuddy man, plus I'm BROKE :'(

[Kajun]

Well, who drove down there and bought it?


are you kidding? noone did..we was just egging you on so we could watch all the pain you would go through during the restore sanding fiberglass and all the money you would have to spend..lol but you figured us out and didn't fall for the trap ;D

[macojoe]

Well I thought you said Skools bought it???

If I had the cash there be no question I be on the way!!

[msbhammer]

Surprised Kajun didnt hop on this one. He's a dually type of guy. ;D

[Kajun]

hammer you know i'd be all over it lol...but come feb 5th i'll be homeless...closing on my house....next week the movers are packing my house and shipping everything to florida....for the next 3 months i'll have my truck, few bags of clothes, laptop and my 18 sport ...i already sold that old classic boat i bought... :( i'll be putting the 18 up for sale locally..if it sells.. great..if it dont..i'll tow it to Fl.

[msbhammer]

Kajun, good luck in the Sunshine state. Wish I was there. You'll find a nice V down south for sure. ;)

[randlemanboater]

Now wait a minute, you guys gave me a rash of sh#t for all this time about where that boat was cause EVERYBODY wanted to go buy it, now I give it up and that's it?

CRIKEY!!!!!!!

[Skools Out]

don't fear calling them tomorrow about that old girl hey see ya atthe Raleigh Show Sat. ;)

[msbhammer]

Stop playing online and getter done !! . ;D

[randlemanboater]

I here those loopers will fly, but dont idle as well as a crossflow.

[msbhammer]

Damm, thought is was Randlemans Starcraft he was suposed to post for us. :-/ :-/ :-/ ;D

[Skools Out]

you can fix that idle turn up the idle screw 1/4 turn fixes them the worst idling motor i ever had was a crossflow 115 Johnson.

[THEFERMANATOR]

the worst idling motor i ever had was a crossflow 115 Johnson.
My 83 1.6l(115HP) sea-drive idles pretty crumby to. It won't hardly run at all unless it's on 50:1, 25:1 had it poppin and belchin somethin fierce.

Many of the bad idling loopers are ones that are in need of overhaul, or ones improperly rebuilt.

My 140 looper idles pretty good after I rejetted it. But man is it hard turning over. Started it today and ran it with some ring free so I can hopefully take it out this weekend.

[Skools Out]

my old 115 was low on compression on one cylinder by 12 psi to the other 3 which caused mine crossflow motors need their compression even or they suck at idle.

[THEFERMANATOR]

Mine barely has an hours run time on it since rebuild, so I'm still waiting on the rings to seat. But it did have 90 even on all cylinders before rebuild, but it wouldn't idle for crap. The best idleing engine I have is a cross-flow engine though, an 80 35HP JOHNSON. It will purr right down to 400 RPM's in neutral, and had it running at 350 in gear before.

I hope I can run it some tommorrow now that I've got another lower unit for it. Want to get some runtime on it before I park it for a new transom.

[macojoe]

I smell something foul about that motor you posted skools?? Looks to me that the paint and decal are not the oringal?
I noticed a croked line near the bottom of the decal paint? ;) ;D

[msbhammer]

I agree with MJ. I think maybe its a Force motor painted up to look like a Johnson. :o ;D

[randlemanboater]

I will get those pictures as soon as I don't have to work every %$#@& day of the week.

I'm @ work now......on my 15 min break of course.
