Steel,

Nice ride you have there.

Why are you selling? The FICHT motor hasn't given you any problems?
 
Re: 1985 Wellcraft V-20 in FL $6,400

No, that is a Ficht in the pictures.  We have owned this boat for 3 1/2 years and, the motor has required some usual stuff, impellors, plugs, fuel pump and a few other items, but it has been fairly reliable.  Most recent was the CPU, which we sent to DFI technologies in Orange Beach, AL for a repair and upgrade, boat is running like a top again and I would not hesitate to run it 30 miles offshore if this weather would improve.

We bought it from an evinrude mechanic and he did all necessary upgrades and really took care of it.

It is super economical to operate.
 
Re: 1985 Wellcraft V-20 in FL $6,400

tell the next owner about us ::)
 
Re: 1985 Wellcraft V-20 in FL $6,400

Sorry your selling it, I'm in Sebastian. Whatcha gonna do now for a boat?
 
Re: 1985 Wellcraft V-20 in FL $6,400

Yes, I will tell the next owner about this site.

And I did find this site through a guy with a new McKee craft boat that I hope to get out with......


....hint...hint... Franco.

I am the titled owner of this vessel, but I am just a 50% owner and the other half owner wants to go BIGGER. He is flush with money right now and it is burning a hole in his pocket, but not for me, EXACT OPPOSITE. I have worn a hole in my pockets looking for some change for lunch.

So, he buys a bigger boat, I get to go fishing whenever I want and I cash in on my half to pay off some debts, insurance and property taxes that are coming due in NOV.

Not a perfect arrangement, but comfortable enough to sell this at a good deal for someone.
 
Re: 1985 Wellcraft V-20 in FL $6,400

Franco, we ran out of Ft. Pierce the last few times we went out and i tell you the short drive down there sure made it a quick trip to the gulfstream. Nice new boat ramp/dock with 4 ramps. and a quick and easy run to the big fish and the inlet is a cream puff compared to Sebastian, not to mention "Boobie Sandbar" when you come in. NOT FAMILY FRIENDLY, but, hey, we are horny pirates when we come in and can handle a few tops droppin' and thongs a showin'. ;D
 
Re: 1985 Wellcraft V-20 in FL $6,400

Some new pics of interior. Floor, hatches and transom are all very solid.

Only issue at this time is a trim and tilt motor that is rusty on edges, but is fully operational.
 
Re: 1985 Wellcraft V-20 in FL $6,400

Sold today (sat. 29th) to first guy that looked at her.  We spent a lot of time cleaning her after emptying all of our personal belongings the last few days.  It is amazing how much crap we had in those hatches!

It looked beautiful when we were done.

$6,000.

Told new owner abouit site.
 
I know the two happiest days of a guys life....

....how come I don't feel that way??

I will miss that boat.

Last time we had her out, we had a triple hook up on sailfish!
 
Congrats!!

Are you buying something else??

I know what you mean, after having the boat a while and all the crap that gets in there, were does it all come from?? ;)
