Cool

Welcome to the site. Always good to see another V20 owner... especially a 1978, (Which as we all know was the best year made).

However, allow me to point out that the info you provided is great, but it is not the weight of the boat. That's the posted capacity weight and includes people, gear, fuel, electronics etc. The actual weight of the boat is less.

Talking

Seems like once or twice a year this topic comes up and then some old guy says the bare hull weighs 1920 lbs.

Guess I'm becoming an old guy.

Default Wellcraft 1978 weight step v20

The post was not for the weight of the boat but for its load capacity. I saw threads asking about the decal itself and my intent was not to get into the boats weight. I chased the answer from Wellcraft for a no kidding answer. Roy sent the decals for a cuddy 20.6. Ironic that when I looked at a picture I took of the Data plate I could make it out better than looking at the factory plate Since the boat has only 3 seats I was curious as to how many I could safely load if it had seats. Thanks for the clarification but I was not confused on that info.
