pics of v-20
Here are some links via photobucket:
http://i363.photobucket.com/albums/o...c/IMG_1199.jpg http://i363.photobucket.com/albums/o...IMG_1198_1.jpg It sure does look good. I've built a few small boats over the years, and the lines of the v-20 do speak to me. Probably exactly like the motorboat that used to come with a Matchbox car and trailer.

Wow...that looks nice!!...and the trailer's in great shape...go for it...have you done transom test?...tilt motor all up...apply your weight to the lower unit gradually and what do you hear?...lots of creakin' and crackin', plan on transom work...no noise is good thing...but for the price, I'd go ahead, regardless...
Try goin' back to P'bucket...click on IMG line, then copy/paste to here...brother, if I can do it, ANYBODY can do it...

I know they are the same hull, but for some reason the older V's look like they have more flare. Either way thats a nice boat and if the interior is as nice as the exterior a very good deal for $2000.

Looks great!!!
Don't remember the teal color of the decals though.  Don't matter, for the floor box covers, spend $400 or so and get some 3/4 Starboard. You'll always find stuff to use it for!! http://www.wellcraftv20.com/communit...=specs&page=14 And WELCOME TO THE SITE!!!

Nice looking boat. Ditto on the transom check. If the boat had been repainted look for blisters around the bunk boards, if they did not use the right paint it may blister in this area.
Either way if the boat, trailer and motor is solid, I dont see where you can go wrong for the price. I have a 90 merc on my 1984 center console and I can do 28 to 30 mph with just me and 26 with the wife and two kids. I would think a 115 would be even better. best of luck. P.S. Half the fun of owning one is tinkering on them.

Welcome to the site!!!!
As good as that boat looks, even if it doesn't run, its worth $2K.

Wow, looks great from the pics you posted.I hope she looks as good up close.
I think you got a good deal there.All older boats need a little something so if a few hatches need work that's no big deal.Good luck.
