Hey guys, do any of you happen to know if this bracket would fit nicely on a V20? I realize that the transoms for each make and model are different and therefore a bracket that fits on one boat won't necessarily fit on my V20. I just thought I would check to see if any of you happen to know off hand whether or not this bracket would fit a V20.

Maco, didn't you use a bracket that didn't fit quite perfectly? Would you have done things differently now that you've lived with it for some time? Just curious...

Go to http://www.greatgrady.com/forum/index.php and ask what the angle of the transom is on the Gulfstream. *If it's the same it should be a good fit, and if it's not, I think you can customize it (wedges) to make it fit. *MJ, didn't you do that?

I just found the transom angle on the GW...it's 15*....Now, what's the v-20's again?

I think the V20 has a 13* transom angle. Here's a thread on it but never really answered. You can see how to measure the transom angle for yourself.

Tin,

Thank you sooooo very much for the response. I appreciate all the time and effort you put into it. I'll try to figure out the degree of my transom tomorrow.

no problem, wasn't much time or effort either :)

I was thinking of a bracket at one time ... so measured the transom angle on my boat - 1988. I believe it measured out at around 11 degrees.

there's a boat close by i think its a GW 20 overnighter and the guy installed a full braket armstrong i think with his cutout transom. have not been on the boat in the water but he's a diver and the access in and out of the boat looks great.

Yeah, didn't know if would work as-is or not, but if the price stays where it is it would be a decent deal -

Oh SNAP! I just realized this is in BC Canada! Bummer! :-[ :'( ::)
