21 chris craft a V20 ?
 

Read on THT that a 21 C/C scorpoin walkaround is the same hull as a V20. I would say no way, but thought i would ask the experts.

Re: 21 chris craft a V20 ?
 

nope. the chris has a sharper entry and less bow flare.

Re: 21 chris craft a V20 ?
 

Charlie is off his rocker yea same built by Hunt as well same hull.

Re: 21 chris craft a V20 ?
 

Sorry Charlie. Same hull.

Re: 21 chris craft a V20 ?
 

MJ take away Charlies God status he just lost it. ;D

Re: 21 chris craft a V20 ?
 

Yep, theres one close by me. The hull looks the same, inner liner a little different. Pretty boat though!

Re: 21 chris craft a V20 ?

sorry Charlie you are off on this one your friend doesn't have that hull *21 CC then cause i had a 1986 21 Scorpoin and it was just the exact same as my 78 V20 *but the cap yeah it's totally different. you're thinking about a Seahawk 21 looks almost same but not but the scorpoin is.

Looks like a V to me!! 8) ...

Re: 21 chris craft a V20 ?
 

I say they are different too. Those v-20 bows are way rounded, I don't think those old scorpions are that round are they?

Re: 21 chris craft a V20 ?
 

i also thought that the cris craft did not have the "Step" pad on the keel.

definately first cousins, but i don't know about being twins

Re: 21 chris craft a V20 ?
 

Maybe not quite the same. V20 deadrise 20 degrees, 21 Scorpion, 22 degree deadrise

Re: 21 chris craft a V20 ?
 

You guys can search the archives, but I emailed John Deknatel who has been the President of C Raymond Hunt and assoc since Ray Hunt Died in the 70's. He told me the Chris Craft is the steplift with different chines . . . and I'm inclined to believe him, since he's a naval architect with 40+ years experience and worked with Ray Hunt since 1963.

I can't seem to find the first thread . . . but here was one email.

Well I think that solves it BS. ;)

Re: 21 chris craft a V20 ?
 

I have spent a lot of time on the 21 C/C and I will have to say it is much more heavy boat and offers a smother ride . My friends was built in the mid 1980's and was rated for 300 hp . It has a deeper V than the Wellcraft . To me it has the same profile as the pre-1978 Wellcraft . I have been looking out for a well kept center console for a while and have not been able to find one . Bottom line ...... great hull !
