1983 v20 $3000

Thinking about selling my cuddy and getting something smaller. We rarely use it anymore and it's just too big for the lake we live on. It's an 83' model I/o with a 350 260hp. Ran great last time we were out exhaust manifolds and risers were replaced 1 1/2 years ago and have only been in the salt once since they were installed, at the same time we replaced the shift cable, bellows, gimble bearing, water pump, thermostat and a lot of other stuff. Boat is in great condition for year gelcoat is still shiney. Passenger seat pedestal screws pulled out of the floor not long after getting the boat so I installed a piece of wood below the pedestal. The deck feels solid all around except where that pedestal was. Trailer it a tandem axle that is also in good shape. Looking to get $3000 with the lowerance elite 5 dsi gps chartplotter with navionics gold chip or $2500 with out it.

Thanks!

Pedestals in back don't come out. It does have a tandem axle trailer that is in good condition. Never have figured out how to upload photos to the site but I can send more photos to a phone number via text or an email address.

Just tried to upload pics again but it keeps saying upload failed. I use my cell phone for Internet so maybe I just can't upload pics from my phone to the site.

That's a sweet looking boat at a more than fair price. You should have no problems selling it. When she's gone don't be a stranger to this site. Lots of guys here don't have V's. It's not a prerequisite for coming here.

Thanks! Yeah I plan to continue visiting around here. I've learned a lot on this site and appreciate all the help I've got around here!

gotta be a pain in the a$$ to get to the hatches in the back there.

Granted I havnt had to change a battery but you have access to everytging in that area through the top hatch covers that are right on top in the back. I think the seats block the view of the covers I'm talking about in that picture.

Well after having her for sale a few months and dealing with several idiots that thought they could talk me into giving them the boat and waiting for all the no shows I've decided the keep the ole v. Guess you guys aren't getting rid of me after all. We took the boat out today and the wife is on board with keeping it and buying something smaller so I guess I can't complain! Going to do a couple repairs and take it down to the keys in a month or so.
