New to the forum
 
Just bought a 81 v20 cc. The boat was a single owner garage kept with only one season in the water. Right now it has an 89 200hp merc with incredible low hrs on it. It hasn't been run in over 6 yrs. I know the owner and know how anal he was with maintenance. I have one soft spot on the deck that im going to have to repair and upgrade the electronics. Besides that I should be good to go. I will post some pics when some of this snow melts here in South Jersey. Anyway just wanted to introduce myself.

Welcome aboard. Take care of that boat and she'll get you through almost anything without a fuss. We love boat porn here, so any pics are always welcome.

Welcome to the board...interesting it was inside a garage 30+ years...used one season and developed a soft spot?...I feel like I'm missin' something here?...

Yeah man...bring on some pics when ya can...and heads up on the Merc...are you still running the auto oiler?...or are you pre-mixing the oil & gas?...if you're still running the auto oiler, there is a plastic gear in that system w/a wide history of failure which will toast your Merc in the blink of an eye...if it were me, I'd disconnect the auto and pre mix that puppy...but that's just me...

Welcome, Jon. It's always nice to know the seller and be able to call upon his firsthand knowledge of the boat. Congrats!

Thanks for the warm welcome guys. The boat was trailered over the past 30 yrs but only in the water for one season. Sorry if I was misleading. I've known the owner and his son all of my life. My father spent a lot of time on this boat. She is exceptionally clean he also had a custom hard top put on. This boat is some kid of special.
