Hardtop to fit V-20 wellcraft, others, no reserve!
 
Here you go BR

Hardtop that came of a V-20 wellcraft, was altered to fit wellcraft. Nice place for electronics, great sunshade, and will help keep water off. Needs some aluminum welding. Buyer to pick up only.Located in Searcy, Arkansas. See my other sale for boat that had this top on it.

LOL I drove to St. Louis about 6 months ago. Left out at 7am EST and got there around 7:30pm CST. That's over 13 hours. Surprisingly it wasn't too bad. But I had a company car and company gas card to ease the pain!

I'd rather drive than fly, personally.

What would something like that go for new?

Don't temp me FM!

Willy, I recently asked a guy that had one built for his V20. It cost him just under $5000 including the curtain set. I think I'll stick with what I've got for now.

Now when my top and curtains finally do give out, I'll be lookin hard at doing something then. That is if I don't run across a cheap radar arch somewhere.

Five G's what do these guys retire someone on everyone they make. I missed the boat somewhere, Lord Skools if you know how to make those things I know what you should be doing for the next five years, before you retire to the Fla. Keys and start your charter service aboard your 38' Cabo ;)

Re: Hardtop to fit V-20 wellcraft, others, no rese
 
hey blue,
in about another 4-7 days that boat you are talking about with the new hard top will be sitting in my driveway. man i sure am looking forward to digging into that thing. im still undecided about hardtop / enclosure... i really do preffer a bimini top, since the majority of my fishing / boating is done in ideal conditions.

Blue_Runner 11-21-2005 07:13 PM

Re: Hardtop to fit V-20 wellcraft, others, no rese
 
FM, the nice thing about your indecision is you get to try the hardtop out first since its already installed ;)

Then if you don't like it, just take it off and sell it. ;D

But, if you don't mind me asking, what's not to like?

For me personally, I boat alot on a local lake that has low bridge clearance, so a folding radar arch would be purrrrrfect for me, while a hardtop would limit my flexibility.

Right now, the lake is down 5 feet and I can scoot right up under the two low lying bridges with ease, even with my bimini and enclosure up!

But, if it weren't for the low bridges, I'd be a hardtop man for sure!

I hear ya on that boat. Keep us posted on your new baby once you get her!

lol Well we could but it may take a few seasons while we all try it out for a season each lol.

Re: Hardtop to fit V-20 wellcraft, others, no rese
 
blue,

a couple things i dont like.

1. you cant open the center window and ride like that... frame in the way. i love runnin with that window open on a hot summer day.

2. may be my imagination but the dam thing looks top heavy... pitch and roll.

3. we do have one kinda low (LIRR) trestle that i dont think i will make at high water.

4. not a helluva lot of coverage... driftin for fluke in the aft cockpit.

5. just think the concept of a hardtop is for a 26 foot express sportfisherman.

may love it when i check it out but the curtains are probably a real pain in the *** too... cleaning, storage, etc...

Fishmaster,

I think no.'s 1-3 are really good concerns. But I tell you what, that top will be sweet, and looks awesome. You just can't beat the rod storage on a hard top, up out of the way. Fixed lighting for a small dome light and an aft spreader light.


macojoe 11-22-2005 11:34 AM

Re: Hardtop to fit V-20 wellcraft, others, no rese
 
Top heavy maybe??

I don't go under any low bridges

I Fluke all the time!! This will be no more in the way the the Bimi to I have now, and thats not in the way at all!

The only problem would be the windshelid. But I bet I can figure a way to mod. it to work ;D

Bring it on baby!! I WANT IT BAD!!

Don't worry between MJ's weight and all the Fluke he'll have aboard they'll clear. ;D

MJ,

Most all of the hardtop boats Iv'e seen have a clear plastic curtain connecting the top of the windshield to the underside of the top.

B.S.,

I wish like a mother @#*%$ that was my boat. Nope....no top on mine. I'd love to have a hard top. I started making one once but it fell through, long story.

Re: Hardtop to fit V-20 wellcraft, others, no rese
 
The guy emailed me back, he said that the welding it needs is on the right top rear, you can see a temp plate in the pic.

I also asked him twice now what are the demisions for shipping, I will arrange all shiping if I buy it. He will not respond to this??

can you say ROAD TRIP

2 days to go, some fool bib the $99 *???

Dosen't he no the biding goes no were till the end? He is driving the bid up!!

Any how the guy has refused to answer any questions about shipping!!
I have tryed 3 times now!! So I guess I am not going to be biding.
there *is no way I am going to go 1500 mikles to get it!!
although mirage offered to bring it to PA But then we still have to figure out how to get it to FL to him. THANK BUDDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So unless anything changes real quick, it just not the right place at the right time *>:(

chumbucket 11-25-2005 10:43 PM

Re: Hardtop to fit V-20 wellcraft, others, no rese
 
Well, if you can get it to PA, I say me, you, and Pete make a road trip. ;D We'll block your V20 and strap that puppy to your trailer and off we go! 8)

macojoe 11-26-2005 04:20 AM

Re: Hardtop to fit V-20 wellcraft, others, no rese
 
well that sounds great!! Just need to figure out how to get it to FL??
I have told the guy I will arrange all the shipping and everything, but he just don't want to answer me with anything to do about shipping.

I will try one more time and see what happens?? We could always take your truck for the 1500 milke run, Much better gas then mine, just no sleeping room in that tonker toy!

mirage2521 11-26-2005 01:12 PM

Re: Hardtop to fit V-20 wellcraft, others, no rese
 
MJ, tell you what I am gonna do for you, go ahead and pay for that thing. I will go get it and store it down here for you till you get ready to come and get it. I will even put it up on a boat to keep it off the ground for you.....oops, I guess it will not work on my CC...oh well

macojoe 11-28-2005 01:47 AM

Re: Hardtop to fit V-20 wellcraft, others, no rese
 
mirage, thanks!! you the man!!
But I did not see this and I decided to let it go, not knowing how I was going to get it.

It sold for $317

O well I guess I will have to wait for the next one that comes by.

Again Thanks!!! It was great of you to offer your service!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :-*

Somebody got a good deal is all I have to say. That is, as long as they didn't have to travel more than a couple hundred miles...
