Default Dusky Drive / Sea Drive

Anyone installed a Dusky Drive on a V20?

Looking at a V20 with a sea drive, but looking at options to raplace it as needed if needed. Motor is definitely not running, but unsure of issue as of yet. Basically buying hull.

Not sure what you mean by a Dusky drive? Are you saying that a Dusky has a sea drive also and want to put it on a V20?? If so I don't see why not.

Most just fill the hole and add a bracket with a newer Outboard. Thats what I did. Sooner then later the parts on the sea drives are going to run out!

This is what i mean:

It's a bracket that Dusky used for a while. Don't know if they still use it, but in Miami it's a common sight on a Dusky.

Just didn't know if it would work on the V20. Doing some reading looks like the V20 is similar to the Dusky 20. Also don't know yet what size boat this drive is off of.

wellcrafts have a pretty good curve in the transom, i don't know about dusky. you could always put in shims to offset if necessary.
