Just pulled my thru hulls from my 86 cuddy. Two different sizes. The hoses were molded radiator hose. One cockpit drain was bronze and the other was plastic. Makes life interesting. Looking for stainless steel. Found replacement ones in nylon for $2.50 each. My thru hull holes are 1 3/8" with 1" hose. I also have to replace the one plastic floor drain. I need to find three small kids to install mine. Not much room or enough hands.
Coming down tomorrow (thusday) weather permitting thinking about trying some late season sharking this weekend - threshers??? around the bone or subway cars if interested call me on cell 717 552 0691.
Slot the storage compartment between the seats is accessible from inside the cuddy door, not a hatch in the floor. Where the legroom is in the cuddy, this area extends up under the deck 12 - 18 inches. This would be the perfect place to add 10 - 15 gallon freshwater washdown ;D
Here's one negative on the V-21 IMO - the transom hatches is really not big enough for 2 batteries, so I keep a spare in the cuddy storage I mention above.
Hope this helps. There are some pics of my V21 in my V20 gallery : if you haven't seen them yet.
Thanks, I've checked em all out. I'm kinda like a deer in the rut right now, all worked up over his V-21 thing. It's my wifes fault, put ideas of newer boats in my head and what not. Funny thing is, I can't find a boat I like better than mine right this second.
