Default What Year?

I recently bought a boat from someone and it's a Wellcraft V20. The owner was not sure what year it was. How do you find out? Help is appreciated. Thanks!

Without a title, pictures are going to be the easiest way I would think. Post some out and you will get a good idea.

Congrats on the purchase. You've just bought one of the sweetest, most versitile boats ever made. Hope you stay around the site and become a member. Welcome!!!

Default Bees!!!!

When I bought it I found out that it was full of honeybees. Worked on getting the honeycomb out this weekend but it's a nasty job. I actually flooded the boat to kill all the bees. They were in the front hull in the one foot by one foot hole. It was a nasty experience but they are finally gone and I can actually start to work on it.

Maybe it's just the way the sun is shining in the pic, but I like that bottom coat color. Kinda a satin sheen to it.

If you'll take some advise, get a trailer jack for the front tongue of your trailer... that way, with it jacked up in storage, when it rains the boat won't fill up with water.
