Where to get a primer on V step 20's?

[Recoil_Rob]

Like what does it actually mean? What years were the boats made and in what configurations?

I tried the History section of this sight but all it seems to be is old catalogs that won't load.

I have some small boat experience but a friend that has lots has recommeneded I look for a "V Step 20 hull" to repower and use on LI Sound. Are they only cuddy's or center consoles?

I would like a full transom, does that mean an I/O is mandatory?

This looks like a great site but I'm really at step one and you guys have been around it so long it seems like a different language at times.


Thanks, Rob

welcome to the site I think?? ;D

V20's from Late 60's to 1995 I think?

Cuddys, Center consoles, dual consoles.

Outboard, Seadrive, I/O

Full transom, I/O, Seadrive modles only

Motor, mim 150 max 225 IMO

Look around ask questions, use the search

RR, welcome to the board, alot of guys here are defenitly "in the know" about the V20. It's a great hull, can't ask for better in a 20 footer. Are you on Long Island or Conn. ?

Recoil, spend some time in the ''For Sale or Wanted'' section of this site...then look around in ''The Gallery''...dual Consoles are rare, but many CCs and Cuddys out there... ;)...stay w/us...you'll pick up the lingo... :D...

Welcome, Rob -- if you're looking for V20 info you've come to the right place. But as for the lingo on this board, proceed with caution -- especially in the "off topic" section -- some of the lingo that goes around here could get you in trouble! ::)

In in NY but on the north side of the Sound, I fish out of Norwalk CT.

Seems like one my options would be to put a bracket on a full transom hull. Can a full transom boat originally built for an I/O be used by glassing in the hole in the transom that was orignally for the outdrive?


Thanks, Rob

[Skools Out]

yes that's right Rob

[macojoe]

Thats what I did!! ;D

RR, the full transom w/bracket is nice,if you don't go that route,just go w/ the 25" transom,the next best thing. I'm on the Northshore too, Kings Park/ Northport area....where you at?
