2017 new steplift

[steplift20]

You know how ford introduced the new mustang and dodge reintroduced the challenger and Chevy reintroduced the camaro wouldn't it be great if wellcraft reintroduced the steplift? Just think a brand new 1978 steplift Wow that's what I'm talking about

I wonder how well it would be received with all the competition out there.
From what I understand Wellcraft didn't want to pay Ray Hunt for continued use of the design. Seems the patent lease or whatever it's called ran out in 1996 and Ray Hunt wanted more $$$.

Closest thing out there now is maybe a Dusky.

Put them side by side and you'll find the actual hull of the dusky is virtually identical to a V-20. Seen 2 side by side in a marina before, and if it wasn't for the name plates, you wouldn't have been able to tell them apart.

There is one big difference - price tag.

I like a Dusky, a little more bare bones which I like, and for a new one pretty reasonable compared to others. I really like the 23s which they call a 25 now with the bracket.

Saw an old salty one ride by 2 days ago with an old school Suzuki 225 2 stroke and thought of you Ferm.
