Well, I only have two V's, (the ones in my sig) But I also have 2 rowboats and 2 canoes... does that count towards being out of my mind?

Well now I don't feel so bad.
Glad to hear I'm not the only one with this sickness.

Picked this up a few weeks back.
Should be fun. It has a Ray Hunt design hull. When sitting still the tubes don't even touch the water. It will float on the fiberglass hull even with the tubes deflated.

I guess I'm firmly entrenched in this twisted club too...

I've got two wellcrafts.. big n little, a 10' Jet'n'cat jetboat, 2 Kawasaki zxi 900 ski's a Yamaha 650 ski, and an old 80's 10' inflatable and for some sick reason I'm on C/L daily boat shopping.

Any Pictures??

Got a friend that has a 3 year old 115 ETEC that is on a beat up old hull.
He is looking to move the motor onto something in better shape.
Wonder if the 115 ETEC would work on a V?

Yes. It won't be a fast mover, but it will get the boat up on plane. I think I recall someone here having a V with a 115 engine a while back and if I recall they said that they could do 23-25 mph easy.

I don't have top speed numbers but the '75 115 T O P on my V planes it effortlessly and I'd guess at least mid 20's, maybe upper.... I'd think that that etec would have a fair amount more power than my old merc..... I'd be surprised if it didn't hit 30

I cruise craigslist almost daily from Charleston SC to Jacksonville FL. Love finding deals on cool older or interesting hulls. Missed out on an old 60's model 21' Moesley Seacraft for free a while back. Kind of looking for a 19' Carolina Skiff for cheap, but have a friend with an older Wellcraft V18 I could probably talk him down on being it's really a project. Then I'd have two wellcrafts.
