After seeing my V21 and on my advice I believe he also reinforced the inside of the transom where the engine mount is. There's about a 1 inch gap between the mount and the stringers. When I redid my floor and foam on my V21 I filled the gap with putty and then glassed it over, making the whole thing one solid unit. He asked me about it and how I did it and I think that when he had the transom fused he also reinforced the inside like mine. You have a beautiful boat. Aside from our differences in politics,, credit where it's due, he took good care of that boat. I'm surprised he sold it.

when Wellcraft comes out with the V22 dmoore will surely have the nicest one on the block.

I'd love to see the cover bgreene put over the sliding hatch to keep water out , if that came with it.

I removed that cover due to no ocean use for me. It is a good idea and I can see why he did it for his use. Haven't decided on whether or not to remove the snaps. I do about 50/50 fishing/beaching so use of anchor will be frequent. Just like my last one I am hesitating the installation of a Windline bow roller. It just makes anchoring so much easier. Blue if you want pics of that cover let me know.

I am very happy with the boat and can't wait to get my registration/numbers back!

You might want to ask him how he cleaned the boat. If I remember correctly we had a conversation at one point where he said he used bleach mixed with soap? of something like that.
