Default full transom original v 20?

Did any of the v20's ever made come with a full transom/drive or bracket? I'm considering a v20 with a full transom and some sort of drive or bracket on the back, but the guy told me it was all original...

To my knowledge the full transom models are the SeaDrive model or the inboard/outboard model.

How hard would it be to convert a sea drive model to a bracket model?

I know this was discussed some on the other thread, but I just spoke with the guy i'm looking at this boat from and he stated that the seadrive is still there, but they mounted a 1999 evinrude 140 to the seadrive... I also have the option of buying another motor (identical) for a few hundred more dollars as they were sold to him as a pair, one non mounted for a backup...

My boat came with a seadrive and a full transom. I removed the seadrive and installed a bracket; not very difficult to do. I have pics of it in my gallery.

SEA-DRIVES AND brackets were factory options in later years. My BIG question would be how he got an 99 140HP OMC. The last 140's rolled out in 94 and in 95 they offered the 130 and a 135 in the later years.

Joe7670 is currently working one of these. Go check out his thread in the performance section. Looks like hardest part is parting with the money to buy the bracket..unless your not on a budget. They are difficult to find for a decent price...decent being $500-700. I saw a very small one on CL yesterday in Orlando I believe for $400. Unbelievable price.

I got a stainless marine with full swim platform for $400, it was a take off. I wish I could have kept it when I sold the boat!
But there are a bunch around if you just take your time and look, ck your boat yards for take off's
If you just get a bracket with no swim platform they sell wings that bolt on and gives you a platform.

Hope to move to a bracketed dual console some day. I could see owning a few of these things... ;)
