Hello all,

I have been reading posts for awhile now, finally joined.(yipee) Great site with lots of info and nice boats. I picked up a v20 last year that my brother found sitting on the side of the road. The boat had sat for 5 or 6 years, and when he showed it to me I knew I was going to buy it. So the owner and I made a deal and I brought it home. The owner didn't know much about the boat as his brother had given it to him and he never did anything with it. So I bought it blind had no clue if it would even run. I got it home and threw a battery in it and the engine turned over for a second and that was it. So to make a long story short I put a in a new starter, points and condenser, plugs, wires, cap and rotor. She fired up....Now the questions start which I will post another thread about. The boat is a 1982 with the merc 470.

Thanks
