More project stuff w/ pics.
 

Well, and friend and I bolted up the motor yesterday. I got the Tilt/Trim unit bolted in. The same friend came over today helped me install the last two cleats. Labor Day weekend is coming quick. I told my wife to plan on going out on the boat one of those days with family. Anyway, here are a few pics.

she looks good 007,nice job. Does the motor run as nice as it looks?

Re: More project stuff w/ pics.
 

Phester,

Yeah, the motor runs great (knock on wood). It started right up after sitting in my garage for 8 months while the work was beeing done on the boat. I did put a new water pump in it while I had it off.

Re: More project stuff w/ pics.
 

Thats one fine boat Shicks !!

Re: More project stuff w/ pics.
 

007, what kinda boat does your nieghbor across the street have? When your boat is done he'll probably have FOR SALE signs on his and he'll be v20 shopping

Re: More project stuff w/ pics.
 

Yeah, there's one under a cover in one shot, then another that looks to be a cuddy-cabin of some sort...you keep sportin' that V20 around in front of 'em, they'll keep 'em ALL under covers... ;) ;D...

Re: More project stuff w/ pics.
 

Hey Oz, we got lotsa talent here, when we win the lottery and build the V20-NS we can hire some of these guys!!!!

Re: More project stuff w/ pics.
 

Yeah, Man...this place is LOADED W/TALENT...we'll have to pay 'em a LOT...provided that's OK w/them... ;)...

NS V20?...RIOT!... ;D...

Thanks guys,

I tell you what, I would rather take an a$$ whoopi'n than have to do that kind of work for a living. Oh well....the hard work's done, the finishing touches shouldn't be to bad. The one boat covered across the street is some sort of older model tri-hull with a 115 Evinrude ( I think it's a 115). The motor is an 84-86 model and literaly has 20 minutes on it, but it hasn't ran in 15+ years. The bigger boat across the other street is a 24 ft Sportscraft I/O, 84' I believe. My best bud owns that.

Chesapeake,

Sorry I missed your question about the FLY. Yeah I decided this topside project was taking long enough and decided to put off doing the hull right now. I still have the issue with the bottom paint. After cleaning up the transom, I'm quite sure that I'm not sanding it all off.

HEY i thought they stopped making v20 so what gives ,
is that a 2005 model or a 2006 model Im not stupid so dont
try to confues me
and i would keep my boat under wrapps also if it wasnt a v20

Re: More project stuff w/ pics.
 

they came up with a new V20 a couple of years ago.

But don't get to excited!! Its a real $hit box and looks nothing like the REAL V20!!
Its something that they thur the name on to try to up sales IMO.
CB and I saw one last year at the boat show and BS had posted some pic here also.

That said Wellcraft did have a 22 foot dual console that I would have killed for!

Re: More project stuff w/ pics.
 

Did the 22'er have a Euro-transom?...

Re: More project stuff w/ pics.
 

MJ, I think steplift20 was jokingly referring to 007's nice lookin refurbished V20! Not actually inquiring about new V20 models...
