I always liked the early 70's center consoles with the "flat" cap. Also I believe the '78 cuddy had some cool features with the new style cap, a wider splash well that looked like it would be good for twin outboards, turned down bow rails, and the unique layout of the instrument cluster.

Not to sound pissy, but I'd be surprised if anyone at Wellcraft even knew about us or cared. Corporate BS coming into play they want to sell the cheapest boat for the most money and with the economy going south I'll bet something there is having to give. I doubt they'd be interested in providing much support for a mid level boat they ceased production of nearly 20 years ago.

I am glad the V20 was Ray Hunt designed and in existence before a big name manufacturer took it over and I'm really glad it wasn't Bayliner! LOL! Wellcraft at least has some other decently cool hulls such as the Nova, Airslot, (some love them, some hate them) and the Scarab which had the Miami Vice notoriety back in the 80's and also carries some respect in offshore racing circles. These were all great hulls in the own right before being mass produced by Wellcraft.
