Oh Wait a minute here. Is the V-20 that was on E-Bay that I wanted. >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:( >:(
It is, isnt it. I forgot. >:(
Pics. look better then the ones on E-Bay. You got yourself a good deal on that baby. ;D

Reel, I'm not sure on those scuppers. I like the ones that I have only because they are out of the way, unlike to the one pictured that sticks out from the hull and could get busted or snagged on something. If I was to do it again. I would run the deck drains straight out the back.
Still wondering about that bracket for your ladder. Dive ladder or just your standard swim platform.
Feel free to run outside in your undies to snap a few pivs. now. Hell, I door it all the time. People next door are use to it by now. :P
 
There was one question left anunswered from what I've read. The plastic box in the port gunnel is to mount the fire extinguisher.

Also, it appears that none of the factory full transom V's drain over the side?
 
Mine does Air, 85 with sea drive conversion to bracket. The sea drives were all full transoms with a small 6x7 hole for the controls in them.
 
Thanks Willy. This is geting harder to figure out. Some of the SeaDrive boats drain overboard, some to the bilge. It also appears that over the years that there may have been different transoms on seadrive, I/O's, and outboards.

My 83 drains from floor into the splash well which was 3/4 inch tubing. When we had the boat apart to replace the transom I changed over to 1 inch tubing which helped alot with draining. Only tim I have trouble with water coming into the splash well then onto the floor is when several people are standing in the back of the boat fishing. I just keep to rubber boat plugs I stick in to keep the water out.
 
From what I've seen, the sea-drive and I/O models with the full transom got the lower floor with drains to the bilge. That's the word on the street anyways.
 
I'm fairly confident that all post 79' outboards drain overboard. It's the I/O's and seadrives that are hard to figure.

Pretty clear what we like to think is WRONG...we like to think all boats of a given yr were made the same; all OBs same, all I/Os same, all Sea Drives same, etc...readin thru this thread they all seem like snowflakes...all different ???


When one guy says '84 does this, another says that...are we comparin' CCs w/Cuddys or Cuddys w/ Cuddys? ???

OK, from now on in this thread, list year, model, and original propulsion.

1984, OB, 20" transom, Cuddy, drains overboard.
