Default Guys is this a V20 or the 20 CC fisherman?

Guys need some help here. I have been clicking around the site looking at all the great threads and gallery of pictures and I suddenly got a feeling the project hull I am looking at is not a V20 but the 20 CC fisherman. I am not close to the seller but will be back in front of it tomorrow afternoon late to look closely for a HIN number and any other details. Take a look and please let me know. Also, any comments on what you think of the hull and what you would suggest doing to it if it was yours?

Thanks!

CT

It may not be the Dual console or the infamous cuddy cabin, but it is the same great hull as most of the ones that we have, had, or will have. It's a great boat, but watch for slight flaws.

There both V-20's in all actuality. The V-20 was available in 3 variety's. The center console, the cuddy cabin, and the dual console. They were all V-20 hulls though based off of the steplift design. The pictures you show look like a 70's era from 77+ center console.

Thanks guys, as long as it is the same hull then I am happy. I was a bit mixed up looking at some of the old catatogs listed here on the site with the 18 and 20 cc listed separately.

ct is that a piece of starboard on the transom, or just a different shade of gel coat? i know from your other post you are going to re-configure the transom, but it might be a bargaining chip..

Thanks Phat, I did not look that closely at the area last week, will do so Wednesday. For sure the boat has seen better days, one reason I am interested, strip it down and build it back up the way I want.

Any other suggestions guys are much appreciated.

Its the same boat as mine, '78 CC Fisherman. My console is farther back, at the rear end of the tank deck hatch.

I would build up the transom (25 inch motor), as mine takes water pretty quick around the motor. And you have to seal the motor well hatch.

It is a ugly duckling of boats these days, but the hull is seakindly and forgiving. I like mine.
