Yo Blue_Runner....

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.
 
Rub rail is not the culprit.  No water in cuddy plus its had a new rail about 2 years ago and 5200 on every screw.

But the rod holders - yes I believe I am getting some water there.  Guide tubes?  Mine don't have em I don't think.

Roger on the 60 gallons...wish it was 80 though :-/
 
Well, if the right deal comes along here in the next month, I'll probably jump. Do they still have the in floor storage between the helm seats?

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.

Yep, I'm sittin in the tall cotton right now just waitin for the right deal. I'm in a good position where I don't NEED to do anything.
