Default Re: Thinking Of Buying a 1982 V-20 Fisherman

Pat...welcome to the site...a good runnin' 150'll push that V' just FINE ...

Motor: pull the cover and look all over for corrossion, bolt-heads and around plugs...you or OB tech do a compression test; all cyls should be w/in 10% of ea/other...check lower-unit oil for shavings and water...min shavins, OK...any water, needs work

Boat: walk around in the boat feeling for soft spots EVERYWHERE, but specially around floor hatches...look in bilge and everywhere else for anything unusual...look for tea-colored stains around fasteners ...

How's the trailer?

Assuming good shape, price is right ...

Good luck w/it...post up some pix...we can help you better w/pix ;) ...



Wise Guy...that shore is a purdy v-20 you got there...nice work 8) ...
