V-20 builds with brackets (what would you have done different)

[Curapa]

I sold my 18' Fisherman a while back. I will be on the hunt for a V-20 CC or a classic Mako or Seacraft if I can find one...

The V-20 is looking like the most likely candidate.

I plan on closing he transom and installing a bracket. What do you not like about your bracketed V? Did you raise the decks high enough for it to self bail while at anchor? What should I be on the lookout while planning my build? Are there certain years that lend themselves better for the project?

Basically, what did you do right and what was done wrong?
