There are a few around here . The 17' has a steplift hull where the later 18' used a different design . I had a friend growing up that had one . It was a great little boat . I do remember that his with a 90hp was slow to plane .

Here are a couple of pictures of my 1975 V-17 CC showing the front and rear view. It is the 2nd V-17 I've owned. The bow flair picture (love that bow flair) was my 1st V-17, a 1973 model - it needed a little front end work on the hull. I ended up giving it to my son in Oklahoma City when I found the 1975 model. The picture of the boat tied to the dock is not mine.

In the rear view picture of the 1975 you can see my 1977 V-20 Center Console project off to the right.

My buddy has one in his shop right now he’s rebuilding. He’s replaced all the floor and gunnel wood with 1/2 marine grade and I think he plans on only putting a side console in it so it should be rather light and fast. Knowing him it’ll have at least a 200 on it.
