I believe its a 160 Mercruiser I/O. I always loved the lines on the V20s, all that flare! I'm super excited!

You should be excited, you have a terrific looking boat. Best part about it is that it came from your Dad. I bet you spent a lot of good times on that boat with your Dad, and will have lots more good times on her with your Dad and others you love. Enjoy!

@nipper very true I spent almost all day Sunday with my three year old daughter cleaning her up, she didn't want to stop now everyday she asks me when we're going to go fish. I remember doing the same things with my Dad. My seven year old daughter however, I still have some work to do. And just to correct myself its a 165 Mercruiser inline six. Facebook has nothing on this site!

I hear ya on the 7 year old...my 7 year old complains to the point that I want to throw him overboard when he's on the boat...the 2 1/2 year old laughs and squeals with every wave we take. Although I recently may have found the answer...we took a neighbor kid out the other day and they both went tubing...when he saw how pie eyed excited the other kid and the kids dad were all day now he thinks his old man might be on to something with this whole boating thing. I'm hoping it takes.

Update: So I took her out for the second time today ran up the James river beached it, swam with the kids then came back in starboard fuel tank ran out 25 feet from the ramp, port side was full. Had to jump ship and walk her in. Question: there are valves for each tank located right in front of the fuel filter (water separator) Should they both be open to draw fuel from both tanks or one open, one closed as needed? Still beats sitting in front of a TV any day.
