Average age of V boat owners

[bgreene]

Since the last V’s produced in 1996, original owners older now, and 2nd - 4th owner boats likely too. Aware WELLCRAFT offered a next gen model but it didn’t sell very well.

So I’m guessing the average age of V owner 50-60 .

Bgreene your very close. I’m ( can’t believe I’m saying this) I’m 68. I am the second owner and own or should I say my boat owns me for about 30 years. Now you said wellcraft made a newer version of 5he V20 or 21. I say they didn’t. They ight have made a newer version but it’s not the V21 or 20. My boat is very basic. No bells and whistles I’m sure the new boat owners would want more stuff but not me. Basic is great. I have seen boat that offer Wi-Fi , are you kidding me. I’m out fishing I don’t even want to look at my phone

Wellcraft did introduce a new V21 model after 1996 was the last year for the original V20/ V21 but it didn’t sell particularly well.

Might just google and you’ll see.

The v21 was a nice boat. I don’t know why it didn’t sell well
1996, Ofer. People were switching to a newer designed hull. Not me , I love-the V20
That’s like people buying a ev, I would never own one,I don’t even want one near my house or car but people ,some people want them.
Just look at the old muscle cars basic as could be bu5 fun to drive and classic. I want one. 69 dodge charger or 70 challenger. Now that’s class

Mine was 1996 V21 and now owned and wonderfully maintained by Dave.

69-70 yes with 440 or 426 but of course by todays standards, they don’t drive particularly well!

I just turned 79 in early July. My V has been sitting for a few years - needs a little work and a big cleanup that I hope to get to this winter and back fishing in it next season.

When I was 18 or 19 years old ,(I had a chance from a used car lot in Brooklyn ) to buy a , ( get ready)
1971 Plymouth GTX with a 440 magnum engine,pistol grip 4 speed,black with 60 thousand miles for $1400.00 no that s not a mistake but had to pass it up, just married and had a kid and living with my mom. Thinking about it, I should have bought that car.

Never cared for that "Euro" stern section.

I guess I am outside of your age range!
