I think this is where I’m gonna land. It’s already been pulled and winterized. I’m gonna see if he has video of it running. He’s down to $4K. I think based on the fact that I can’t run it, I’m gonna try to get him down to $3,500.
What say you guys?

I had 21 center console version of that hull, before i got my V. The best riding and driest CC i have ever been in. Rides great in our short windriven gulf chop. Only drawback, very tippy when at rest

Hope it works out for U

It that boat really 24'? It really doesn't look any longer than a V-20.

Looks like a nice ride. My buddy had an old robalo with the identical hull. Rode like a dream. Going on Saturday. Will most likely pull the trigger.
Only issue I can see, the trailer is torsion bar suspension. He says the torsion bar is shot and the trailer is riding on the axles. It’s a good 60 mile trip. It’s gonna be long and slow.

Well, if it does need axles, good news is they are easy to change,
bad news is they are about $500 bucks apiece.

Hard to believe they are worn out.

Yea, I see torsion worn out all the time(buddy runs a trailer shop), not a hard job, measure for the replacements at least three times before ordering. You need to double check that price, galvanized just went thru the roof. Lets Go Brandon

No, doesn’t look like a big job, but I know it’s pretty pricey. How bad would it be dragging it home 60 plus miles?
