Go and look at 10 different V20s before buying one. There are a lot of deals out there, but a lot of stuff that is overpriced, or will end up costing you the purchase price in repairs. (If not more.) Every boat costs the owner money to own and maintain, even if it's brand new. Anything that's needs done though, someone here has already done it and you can benefit from others knowledge, mistakes and shortcuts.

Thanks for the replies. I'll try and get out to see some boats when the ice thaws out. The couple of V20's I have seen nearby sold before I contacted them. A few of the Fisherman and Sportsman are around that I intend to look at, or the open bow 232 Eclipse. I know those are not the V20 hull, but Wellcraft has a number of quality looking boats.

Come on now, don't go and buy a 232 Eclipse on us!

Keep your eyes peeled in the boats for sale section. Every few months one of us posts up some awesome cream puff rig they found on craigslist or ebay.

LOL. Those 232's look like quality boats.

Found several V20 or V21 boats but all are down south and saltwater boats. What are all if your thoughts on buying a saltwater boat if I will only use it I'm freshwater? I was told by others it's steer clear of salt boats.
