I have a 96' V21 ....still own.
Bow rails in the picture are not the factory original. Doesn't matter if done properly. The key to all these older boats built with lots of wood is water intrusion and associated rot. If you know where to look........and what to look for you'll be ok with either boat. If you don't know - I'll forward a list.

I have a V20 and a V21. They are both nice boats. Both have 200HP outboards on them. I like the identical ride in both of them. But I think the V21, with it's bubble transom, built in fish boxes and wash down system is a nicer boat.

Hey! Destroyer finally showed up! Thanks for feedback...not too many have been fortunate to own both.
Lots of interesting opinions on this thread. Did you add the wash down system? Bill

Well this "poll" didn't turn out as I thought. I expected most folks to "vote" for the newer hull....seems like that is not the case?!
So what does this mean? 1) We are attached to our boats Or 2) There is not much to be gained moving from a V 20 to V 21. (Hull design has never changed over 20 yrs...) Decisions, decisions... Bill

I wasn't overly impressed with the 21 I had for a year or so...the '87 I have now is exactly what I want in a V20...

One thing to think about about is the newer models will more then likely have a poly gas tank and older models will more then likely have aluminum tanks.
