Default Re: Looking at 86 Cuddy

Yes, I mean overboard. If you have corner drains they should have been plumbed into through hull like skools posted. I have a buddy (not a site member) with an '83 or '84 that has the corner drains and they are plumbed into through hulls for overboard drainage (that is what self bailing means. Not into the bilge) Mac Attacks boat is self bailing as well even though it drains through the motorwell. My center console had the rear corner drains plumbed into through hulls where Mac's are missing as well as the drain holes in the motorwell..
One thing I've seemed to pick up on with regards to these V20's from Wellcraft, is that consistancy was not always a factor. Just when you think you've got most of the model variances figured out, someone will prove you wrong on something in that theirs was built slightly different. Almost seemed as thought they weren't all built at the same facility (I'm quite sure they were though) or they had hulls that may have been left over from prior model/year runs and they may have "tweaked" them a bit to sell as current models. Not much surprises me in the way of inconsistancy on these boats.
They're still a great design and hard to compare the value of what you get for your money
