its a good boat, a friend had one and i hated the raised seats, i thought the floor space was less then the v20?

as dmoore said by the time you fix up stuff on a new to you boat you will be up there in $$!
but i have been were you are and always had to build as i went. i don't even know what i spent on my v20, and don;t want to know!! but i had to do with what i had. now the sea ox, i bought for $2k and after all repairs, motors, new hardtop, all new radar, fish finder, gps and countless other stuff i am about a total $20,000 yes 20k!!
when i look around whats out there for 20k i am wish i could get that! but mine goes and does what i want with no worry and its all mine!

good luck!!
