Hey guys I just purchased a V20 it was a little more than I wanted to start out with being new to boating, but after reading the website and researching I believe I made the right choice. I was reading how everyone liked pictures so I thought it best to join after I snapped a few pics.

Thanks lumberslinger this stuff is all new to me but I am real familiar with fixing things up. I haven't quite got the hang of posting pictures yet so I will just post this link to my album for now. I will warn you guys I will have tons of questions. http://picasaweb.google.com/kevama/BoatV20Cuddy

listen pal, nobody here likes pictures.
we dont like questions and we arent too crazy about these boats.
to be honest this is a gay undercover site.

I looked at those pics and all I can say is WOW,
is that really a 78!?!?!

Whoever you bought it from really took the time to
keep it in good shape.

Might I inquire as to what you paid?


Oh yeah welcome to the site and be carefull around CTT,
if you notice the pic at the bottom of his post,
that is a member that we haven't heard from in a while
and now we know why.
CTT used his shrinking death ray to encapselate him in green jello.

Great looking boat Chomper. Welcome to the site. Boy, that thing should fly with that 235 h.p. outboard on it.

Good luck with the boat. I am sure you will have many happy times with it.

Thanks guys and yep it is a 78. The engine is more than I was looking for but it was on the back and had just been serviced. Although I am thinking about re-powering. Boat, trailer, motor all 3k. Now I am in the market for a kicker. Any ideas about mounting, hp ?

Sharp looking boat. Sounds to me like you got a deal. If you are new to boating and the engine is in good shape mechanically I'd keep it for at least the first season. :beer:

Thanks bradford, that is what I planned on doing for this year. I just want to get it in the water and fish I will re-power it next year. I would like to get a kicker on the back though for peace of mind being a newbie and all.
