Keep looking. I think you have made the right choice not to try and repair the hull. It would have been a tough job.

I just pulled up those pics and are you sure that its not an access hatch to storage. I have a storage compartment is in the same place. Maybe some kind of tank was installed there like a wash down and only the cover needs repair.
I looked at it some more and it to me it appears that the fiberglass wraps around the edge of the cut out which would support the idea that its a cover. Its a clean boat to have floor issues. Was that the only spot? |

The cutout area was the only SOLID spot. EVERYWHERE else is soft. There was also water standing in the rear compartment where the oiltank is. I haven't heard from Miller today so I guess they are just looking for someone who thinks nothing of a soft deck.
BTW, I don't think there is any storage under the floor on these simply because of the 60 gallon fuel tank. The poor repair I saw might have been an attempt to fix the worse of the softness. Gaitor, was the cutout I mentioned earlier there when you looked at it? Also, how long ago did you see it? I'm just curious how long the boat has been sitting around. |

I would think either that boat was a sinker or someone let it fill up with water for a couple of years on the trailer for the whole floor to be solf :-/
I've seen a few V21's here and there and never have I seen a rectangle or square hatch in the rear deck. A round inspection plate seems to be the default, yes. Now there is some wasted space in that area between the fuel tank and inspection plate. I would never do it, but a fellow could make the area accessible with a deck hatch. I don't want to introduce any more opportunities for water.

Jeff I looked at it in early March, and it had just gotten to Miller then I think.
And that hatch definitely is not supposed to be there! It was what you said, a poor attempt to repair the worst I think.
