I'm looking at buying a Wellcraft V 20 that I've had my eye on. I don't know what year it is and its basically a boat and trailer. The owner is not selling the motor or controls. I have a 1985 Yamaha 200hp outboard I can put on it. I am waiting to get in touch with him for more details. My question is, was there anything quirky about this model of boat I should be wary of? I did a search on the forum for Wellcraft V-20 and did not find much. One or two posts about weak transoms because of poor construction that allowed water to seep in and weaken the plywood underneath. This thing is being given away fairly cheap so I'm a little skeptical that it is a diamond in the rough. Sounds more like something that is a hindrance to the seller.
Is it called a V 20 because it's 20' in length or can they be all different sizes? The current motor on it is a 150hp Evinrude.
Thanks in advance for comments.
