DUMB QUESTION???

Cy,
I know its confusing...here's the scoop:
They did make a V21. It has a built-in "bracket". I think they made them for just a couple of years - maybe '92 - '95? Not sure on that. Mine is a '94.
In my gallery, those are 2 different boats. I have a '72 V20 that I need to sell soon and the '94 V21 which is my baby. All along I planned on repowering my '72 until one day I happened upon the V21 on this site for sale. I bought it, repowered with a brand new Yamaha and recently sold the old motor to MJ - I think you know what happened from there :'( :'( :'(
The '72 came with twin 140hp Johnsons. I sold those 2 motors to Skools and they now sit on the fastest fence in the southeast. I'm sure Skool's is waiting on the right project to use em on.
Did that clear it up? Here's a pic of the built-in "bracket":
Bracket makes for a nice open cockpit!
Last but not least, the '72 with twin 140's
This was how it looked when I bought it. I did tons of work to it, not excluding totally rebuilding the trailer with new everything. And sunk $800 in the transom in preparation for the new motor. :-/

Those sure are cute kids ;D ;D ;D ...but you still a DAWG

Lesterus, yeah I'd be glad to. I'm not sure I have any pics in inventory - I'll check - if not I will snap a few over the weekend for you.
I looked at those from FP and almost bought a pair once on eBay. Could've got em super cheap too. I them better than the ones I have because they have 3 true rod holders per insert whereas mine have 2 rod holders and a little gaff holder (or whatever) in the middle.
From what I understand based on previous posts from guys on here that have replaced them, the ones from FP are slightly taller which means you might have to trim the hole out to fit them in.
Mine are in "not so hot" shape. They have a few cracks in them that the previous owner repaired with 5200. It won't be long and I'll need some too. I sure hope FP has em when I need em ???

HEY,BLU!!!
THANKS FOR THE PICS, CALL KEN AT FP MARINE, AFTER I TALKED TO HIM HE LISTED THEM IN HIS WEBSITE(WWW.FPMARINE.COM/PLASTICS) I THINK HE HAS 2 PCS IN STOCK THAT HE ORDERED FOR MY BUT THEY WERE
BRIGTH WHITE AND I WANTED THEM OFF WHITE. ANY HOW THE PRICE IS $120.00 A PIECE.
THE ONLY ISSUE I HAVE IS THAT MY INNER LINER DOES NOT GO STRAIGHT DOWN LIKE YOURS, BUT IT BENDS A LITTLE INWARD CLOSE TO THE FLOOR, SO I DON'T KNOW YET HOW I'M GOING TO FIT THEM, BUT BY LOOKING AT YOURS, I DON'T THINK YOU'LL HAVE ANY PROBLEM.

Lesterus, Thanks for the compliments! About the stripe, the previous owner painted the outside of the boat with awlgrip, therefore if there was a stripe it got deleted prior to prime and paint.
I actually happen to like the plain look. To me it makes it look nice and clean (and the fish haven't complained yet). Everybody has different taste when it comes to things like color, stripes, etc. and I happen to be a "no-stripe" guy
Now if the stripe were there, would I bother to take it off? I doubt it, I'm too lazy to tackle a cosmetic-related job. :

TELL ME ABOUT IT!!! I HAVE THIS BOAT FOR 22 YEARS NOW, SO FROM TIME TO TIME I GO THRU A COMETIC/MAINTENANCE OVERHAUL. NOW THAT I GOT RID OF BIG BOATS IT'S TIME.
I'M GOING TO CHANGE THEM ROD BOXES, NEW RUB RAIL
(MY IS ORIGINAL ALUMINUM AN IT'S ALL BANGED) GOING WITH FLEXIBLE RUBBER W/ STAINLESS INSERT, POLISHING, NEW STRIPPING TO ORIGINAL SPECS AND A FRIEND OF MINE IS GOING TO DUPLICATE ORIGINAL DECALS.
THIS IS CHEAPER THAN A NEW BOAT!!!!
