DUMB QUESTION???

[C YENSEN]

SO DID WELLCRAFT ACTUALLY MAKE A V21 OR DID YOU GUYS WHO ADDED BRACKETS JUST START CALLING IT THE V21 ???

AND BLUE, IN YOUR GALLERY YOU HAVE PHOTOS OF A V20 DID YOU MAKE IT A V21 OR IS IT A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT BOAT???

Cy,

I know its confusing...here's the scoop:

They did make a V21. It has a built-in "bracket". I think they made them for just a couple of years - maybe '92 - '95? Not sure on that. Mine is a '94.

In my gallery, those are 2 different boats. I have a '72 V20 that I need to sell soon and the '94 V21 which is my baby. All along I planned on repowering my '72 until one day I happened upon the V21 on this site for sale. I bought it, repowered with a brand new Yamaha and recently sold the old motor to MJ - I think you know what happened from there :'( :'( :'(

The '72 came with twin 140hp Johnsons. I sold those 2 motors to Skools and they now sit on the fastest fence in the southeast. I'm sure Skool's is waiting on the right project to use em on.

Did that clear it up? Here's a pic of the built-in "bracket":


Bracket makes for a nice open cockpit!


Last but not least, the '72 with twin 140's :o This was how it looked when I bought it. I did tons of work to it, not excluding totally rebuilding the trailer with new everything. And sunk $800 in the transom in preparation for the new motor. :-/

HEY,BLU:

CAN YOU SEND ME A PIC OFF THOSE ROD BOXES IN YOUR V-21? I BOUGHT SOME FROM FP MARINE (HAVEN'T RECEIVE THEM YET) THAT ARE 68" LONG X 16" WIDE AND WANT TO SEE HOW YOUR LOOK SINCE THEY ARE VERY SIMILAR.

Lesterus, yeah I'd be glad to. I'm not sure I have any pics in inventory - I'll check - if not I will snap a few over the weekend for you.

I looked at those from FP and almost bought a pair once on eBay. Could've got em super cheap too. I them better than the ones I have because they have 3 true rod holders per insert whereas mine have 2 rod holders and a little gaff holder (or whatever) in the middle.

From what I understand based on previous posts from guys on here that have replaced them, the ones from FP are slightly taller which means you might have to trim the hole out to fit them in.

Mine are in "not so hot" shape. They have a few cracks in them that the previous owner repaired with 5200. It won't be long and I'll need some too. I sure hope FP has em when I need em ???

[msbhammer]

Blue, what ya be asking for your V-20 ???

[Blue_Runner]

Seat boxes are factory molded into the floor.

Hammer, I wouldn't take a $100,000 for it!! ( I'd take a lot less ;D).
