Default identifying the V20

Hi All,

Newbie, and MAN ... am I glad to find this site!

I have inherited my Dad's V20 Steplift I/O
and am having a very hard time identifying what year it is.
(no surviving paperwork or manuals)
The stamped (transom) hull ID - WELE2442M83J-V20

I KNOW he had this in the 1980's but he had the original
motor either replaced or rebuilt and that appears to be:

From the transom of the stern drive - S/N 0F308702
From the port side of the stern drive - S/N 0F172148

From the Air Filter – “Engine S/N 0F132266”
From the Air Filter – “Drive S/N 0F172148”

I found the manuals online (#14 and #18) which say
the SN should be on the motor near the starter and on a plate,
but NEITHER place can I find any S/Ns for the motor.

Secondarily, is finding a cover. Most don't list
this boat past 1987, and I'm pretty sure it's older than that
just based on memory of going out in it with my Dad.

Any help or ideas where to find these years out for sure would be greatly
appreciated.

I *THINK* this might be it but can't prove it yet ... (from wellcraft.com)
