Thanks guys. The skiff is a simple J16 that I bought as a kit boat and added a bench seat and large bow platform. It's powered by a 25hp, tiller control, Yamaha 4-stroke. No battery, no electronics, just pull the cord and GO. We use it for fishing (trolls at a crawl), clamming, beachcombing and goofing around in shallow water. I'll post some new pictures of both boats soon, the snow is finally melting. Everybody's V-20/21s look great.

The 248 is an awesome family boat. Name another 25' walkaround that sleeps four in berths with a galley and a stand up head. She gets a lot of use cruising, camping and fishing. It's an '84 hull with a '99 5.7 liter EFI Mercruiser and Alpha 1. We love her. I just started redoing all the cockpit teak last weakend, under the shrinkwrap of course.

I loved my 85' 248 Offshore and ran it for 9 years. I bought the 248 after being caught in an especially bad thunderstorm in my 83' V-20. There's nothing wrong with a 248's construction or lines and so glad this site supports all the good ol' hulls and their followings.
