Default Calling Mac_Attack

Hi- I was viewing the Gallery and noticed you have a V-20 Sport. I am new to this site and just purchased the same boat from Clamnfish this past Saturday. I also noticed you made several modifications that I am planning to do. Your hatch doors, are they custom? They look great, mine will be in need of replacement eventually. Also, may I ask were you got the new stern doors? Anything to look out for when cutting into the port side, wires, whatever? I need to add a trolling motor bracket, also. Any tips?

Thanks in advance. It's snowing hard here right now (VT), I guess I have all winter to plan and order parts. Has anyone tried this site: http://www.fpmarine.com/ ?

Dave C.

Welcome aboard........

Not sure what the "SPORT" package was or how it is different than the rest of the V's

Default V-20 Sport

I believe you are correct, this one was upgraded to a 1998 Evinrude 175 Ocean Pro (carburators), also much newer tandem trailer. Also less wood trim. The only wood is on either side of the sliding hatch and the swim platform. The other thing I noticed was the sliding door to get into the cuddy, would have preferred a bi-fold... Can't wait for iceout!
