Looks like a 20.6 to me. As far as price, who knows, local markets dictate that. In north Florida , with that age motor , probably more like 5-7 grand neighborhood. I will say the center consoles hold value more that the cuddy. To me,the 115 is a little on the weak side,150 is a better fit.
Best way to check the transom is trim motor up and bounce on foot, look for flex in transom. You can usually open the rear hatch’s and look down where the stringers meet the transom. There should be holes drilled through stringers to allow water to migrate to bottom of bilge. Feel inside of the holes with your finger. If that wood is soft and mushy, probable lower stringers are gone.
I would also be wary of the fuel tank, if original. There should be an inspection plate on the deck or under console to get to the tank hose connections and sending unit. Look under there to check the tank condition.
Check how the T top and console is fastened to deck, usually where water gets into the deck core.
The V 20 center console is a great boat , but at least 35 years old, so expect some work.
Looks like a great place to have a boat, let us know what you do.
