Default Bought the 96' V 21 listed here in NJ !

Got lucky and found this one right here within 50 miles of me - the one listed without
bottom paint etc.....

Real fortunate - to find this 96' V21 with maybe 200 hrs on the whole rig including outboard. Test ride was great, motor ran much smoother than I remember my previous carb'd Evinrude.

So thank you - to all the guys who assisted, answered questions, and referred me to possible boats. I look forward to sharing pics, experiences, and interaction with other V boat owners.

Oh.........ps - the deck floor is SOLID ! No soft spots ! Same for transom.

Figured that or you wouldn't have gotten it...your patience and perceverance paid off big time...can't believe it popped up so close to you!!...looks like a REEL gem...what are your plans for it...use pretty much as is, or have you upgrades in her plans?....

Either way, congrats on finding the right one!!...

Just taking time to go through it.....even though in fantastic condition, some attentiion to details.

Thorough wash and wax, check out all systems etc.....

Plan to be back to fishing soon. What a nice boat, so much room compared to my previous boat - Mako CC which was built like a tank, but little room to move around on it.

I fish the ocean quite a bit.......feel at home there - generally from Shark River Inlet north to Sandy Hook area. One of the the best fishing areas in the NE, my opinion. Seabass, tog, blues, fluke, stripers and even bonito and albies. All within a couple of miles from the coast.

Congrats on your purchase. You'd have spent a lot more $$ buying and fixing up an older V-20 than the asking price on that one. (Ask me how I know.)

Enjoy.
