You know the sweet water will be a nice retirement for the old girl - not that she needs to take it easy lol. Knowing you and by the looks of her she will be plying the waters for many years to come!

And please, please, don't go anywhere. We all value you as a member here and have enjoyed all of your wonderful comeraderie and contributions to this forum over the years!!!!!

Thank you Bladerunner. I appreciate the help, glad to be here.

"Blue Runner", not Blade. My apologies.

Thankful for the opportunity

I'm new to the Wellcraft V20 family and happy to be here. I was lucky and blessed enough to be the purchaser of Bradfords V20. I had been looking for one for quite awhile and had talked to Aaron previously in May. I have to admit, with everything going on lately with Evinrude, I was a little skittish to pursue the boat. After doing some homework and talking to an Evinrude dealer in Orangburg, SC., a felt a little better.
After a few weeks, I gave Aaron a call and found the boat was still available.
Maybe it was meant to be. After a previous career in yachting and growing up on Lake Murray, I can appreciate the time, care, expense and passion that Aaron had put into this V20. You can see by the pictures, this is a well-cared for boat and I have every intention to keep it so.
After spending the afternoon with Aaron, learning about the boat and doing a sea trial, I felt that Aaron was the seller I had been looking for and I believe I was the buyer that he was hoping for. Aaron, thanks again.

Glad you were able to log on!

Looking forward to seeing her continue on, she went to a good home. Should be sending some extra spare parts to you soon, just want to be sure I find them all.

That would be great, thank you. All good on the trailer bearings, self taught on Saturday how to rebuild the hub. Learned that Northern Tool has everything you need.

well, they're supposed to....unless it is me and they'll have everything EXCEPT what I need lol. Same for every other big box store too.

So glad it worked out well, Aaron.

I too am a new Wellcraft V20 steplift owner. I bought the boat that glarson on Cape Cod advertised, and I've been busy outfitting it as I'd like and taking it everywhere from Cape Cod to Virginia Beach. (mostly by trailer... of course!).

I love the boat, and I'm thrilled to have it and be part of this forum. Enough hi-jacking of threads in the classifieds, I'll start my own "build" thread of sorts... in the regular part of the forum.

Cheers!
