If I wasn't starin' down the tax-man right now, I'd go get that one and start figurin' out how to put this 20" Honda on a 25" transom ;) ...

If anybody wants a second opinion, I live about 50 minutes away, but I'll be in that area one day this week on business. Turbo and SP are 20 minutes closer then I am.

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
I could not figure out how to post pictures on this site or I would not have sold through e-bay. I would rather sell to someone who knows how great these hulls really are. I need to sell this boat to restore marital harmony. My recent purchase of a duck boat pushed my fleet beyond my wife's comfort zone. I have enjoyed reading the posts on this site for over a year now and hopefully can get a v-20 again someday. The boat is in great shape, there are no soft spots, ther transom is solid and the cabin is clean. You can see the antiquated depth finder etc. I have not had time to get the navigation lights to work but I don't think that there any issues that couldn't be addressed with a little tlc. The motor looks kind of shabby, but it runs well. The drive-on trailer has rusty fenders and the lights work every now and then but it is very roadworthy. I would be willing to meet any member of this site within a reasonable distance or deliver if you are close enough. Please feel free to ask any questions.

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
Reel...so are these years for 25" shafts and yours is a 20"? I recall the 1984 that randleman just bought had some aluminum plate to make the 25" fit correct? So if your were going to repower a 1988 like this, what shaft length? Or does this have the adapter plate?

Sorry for dumb questions just getting confused on the shaft length and the brochures from Wellcraft in the Gallery don't seem to elude to what length shaft they need...I guess I'm wondering if one length is better than the other for some reason?
thanks!

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
Skool you sell alot of stuff on E-Bay. I just tried it for the first time. Stuff didnt sell and got banged for 25 bucks in listing fee's. That Stinks. >:( I thought if it didnt sell, you didnt pay. :-/

Skools Out 03-04-2007 02:41 PM

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
$25 wow how much was your listing start price? you have to check prices to list some times it's cheaper to start under $9.99 and set a reserve.

msbhammer 03-04-2007 02:47 PM

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
Not to be a hi-jacker here, but I listed a few limited edition Franklin Mint plates I have for 15 years. Starting price was 50 bucks with each gallery only having two pics.

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
I wish I would have known how to do the pictures the other night before I listed on e-bay. I also wish I had cleaned the boat up a little bit. I see the pride you all take in your boats and it is embarrassing. Thanks for all the response to this boat.

msbhammer 03-04-2007 04:15 PM

Re: VA. V For Sale

$25 for $50 bucks worth of stuff??

I sell there all the time! I just sold $40 and between Ebay, shipping, and paypal fee's I payed $7.50 which I charged the buyer as shipping and handling.

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
KellyJoe, nice looking boat. I know how it feels, I have two boats and a wife, and fish with others sometimes leaving the two boats home. When it comes to fishing, I always invite the family, now, if they don't want to go, thats on them ;DI'm going fishing. Back to your boat, I have a guy at work who just asked me about finding a V friday afternoon. I'll check with him monday am.

msbhammer 03-04-2007 06:19 PM

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
Did you buy the boat in NC. ?? Looks like I have seen this boat before, but it had a Merc. on it.

kellyjoe 03-04-2007 06:25 PM

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
I bought the boat from the second owner who bought it from a man near airslot at Captain's Cove about 8 or 9 years ago. It only has a single battery the gauges do not work the steering works fine. I just showed the boat to a member from Norfolk Virginia who stopped by and ran the engine for him but did not take a picture

Airslot 03-04-2007 06:27 PM

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
Y'all should know, Kellyjoe lives in about the fishiest place on earth. Lots and lots of good fishing over there. Shame to give up this boat unless ya got something else to get you on the bay.

kellyjoe 03-04-2007 06:28 PM

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
oh yeah, fuel tank is in good shape no issues I did not stop using the boat this year until December. I used store and start in the fuel and just cranked the motor an hour ago and it started and ran fine

msbhammer 03-04-2007 06:28 PM

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
One of our V members ??? Did he come by bus, cab or parents ???

Hope it Wasnt Fishbone. ;D :o :o :o :P :P :P :P

kellyjoe 03-04-2007 06:36 PM

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
It was gatorbait and he came by suv. Airslot is right about me living in one of the fishiest spots on the east coast. I can see my fishing hole from my living room it's called Pungoteague creek. I am 1/4 mile from the chesapeake bay. I invited everyone on the sight to my church's fishing day last year but nobody was close enough to come. The offer still stands for this summer whether I have a Wellcraft or not.

Airslot 03-04-2007 06:47 PM

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
Kellyjoe, I missed that offer last summer, I hope to make it this year. Won't be long, and the specks will be back...

Man that's a nice V ..... wish I'd seen it before I bought this Grady last fall..... I live over on the Eastern Shore, My Dad has a V20 (minus the nice gelcoat) and repowered with a 140 Suzuki 4 stroke...... proably saw this one before.... Sweet boat

Airslot 03-04-2007 07:33 PM

GB, I'm pretty sure by '88 it was a 25" transom...advantage is deeper transom before water comes into splashwell and motor is more likely to tilt all the way outta the water when docked is all I know... :D ...

Airslot 03-05-2007 12:31 AM

Re: VA. V For Sale
 
I know that from 79 - 88, and maybe other years, both transoms were factory available.
