    Fluking 6/16, 6/18, 6/25

    What do you mean no one is making a living fishing for bass? I'm spooling up the 113hs with wire right now and figure I'll make enough this summer to quit my day job and take an early retirement!

    Northstar F210

    I put one on this spring, I picked it up at Boater's World when they had it for $99. It's worked great so far although having your GPH constantly in your face can be a little depressing at $5 bucks a gallon.

    My $600 is due in July, the same time as my truck insurance bill that also happens to be right around $600. Oh Well

    Finally got a V

    Yes it is one of the folding models, although I havn't tried folding it. Seems as sturdy as any of the other tops that I have seen.

    Finally got a V

    Well I got the starboard cut for the console top, and got the electronics installed. And the new custom rod box grommets. Spent the rest of the day waiting for MarineTex to set up.

    Actually you almost did ;) http://www.wellcraftv20.com/community/showthread.php?t=9198 I paid 8k for it. More than I would have but you pay a premium for center consoles in this area. The previous owner had done a great job on a complete engine rebuild, rewire, hydraullic steering, new T top...

    Finally got a V

    Yeah, I have been digging through the forum for information ever since I saw the boat for sale. It's a 1990 hull with a 1995 johnson 200hp. I didn't dare post till I had a pic, I know how you guys are. Actually I had around a dozen pics but I managed to delete them somehow.

    Finally got a V

    Hey guys, I posted here a couple of years ago when I was trying to buy a V20 cuddy form a neighbor. Ultimately he decided not to sell, the poor boat is still sitting unused on its mooring. Well after a seven year wait on my towns mooring list I finally made it to the top, now all I needed was...

    Fair price for an 88 v20

    Well I did the compression check and it looked good(only a 3 psi differential between the cylinders). chumbucket thanks for the info on the other boat up by the rotary, I'm gonna be up that way tomorrow so I'll swing by and take a look. I'm also going to try and look at another one I saw in...

    Fair price for an 88 v20

    Yep, I'm down in the Chatham area. Owner of the boat is from off cape, but i'm planning on meeting with him this weekend to see if we can come up with a price. Went looking at trailers this afternoon and looks like one will run around $2100 or so. Havn't seen any used ones in the area.

    Fair price for an 88 v20

    Thanks for the replies, the estimate on the engine hours was mine not the owners, most years the boat has never left the mooring other than the five minute ride from the ramp to the mooring when it was put in in the spring and pulled in the fall. I took it out for a test drive today. Ran it out...
