Like the title says. I need to make some improvements to my house and don't really feel like going into debt. If I can sell my boat for a good price I just might do it. I never thought I would do it but prioritys change. Anyway My boat is a 1981 v20 with a 2007 merc optimax 225. The motor runs great but has 1100 hours. For those of you that don't know I replaced the transom,floors,bulkheads,fuel tank. I added an insulated fishbox with pump out in the floor. It has underwater lights,bimini top with three sides enclosure,custom made aft seat,a brand new Garmin 740s,full smartcraft instrumentation. Here are some pics as she sits today. The cuddy coushions,porta potty and stern seat are at home in my attic.

So what do you guys think she's worth? I also have a tandem axle float on trailer for it.

I may be able to scrape up. . . . . . . say, $382.55.

I think that's fair.

You have a really nice boat...but it is the wrong time of year to sell, especially up there where you live.

Depends how you look at it. Bad time for the seller, but a GREAT time for a buyer.

Keep her man. You'll never find another for the price you sell her for in any condition close to what she's in. You also know her unlike the next one.

Thats one sweet V20!

I posted mostly to see what you guys think she's worth. If it's close to what I need then I would probably let her go. Ozzie, you're a riot. Michele really needs to start pulling her weight around here LOL!

Thanks Bradford. I have been thinking about eventually going with something a little bigger. I was thinking of finding an older 25 Mako project or 22 outrage cuddy.

I like the older Makos too. Is the 25 a cuddy model?

No it's not a cuddy. But I could add a dodger to it or if I'm ambitious enough glass in a small cuddy.
