I’ll let you guys know first. Boat is going to up for sale. Haven’t figured a number yet but as it sits now we have right around 15k in materials and parts ( including motor).
New project on its way as of Friday when we were notified we won the bid
Here we go again. Had a little insider info on the new diesel that was put in sept 2020. Less than 100hrs on it and the gear. Nanni dealer pickled the engine and gear. All mechanical and electrical no grinding glass yea.

You did a fintastic. Job but what I can't understand is after all that beautiful work and the turn out is a great looking classic boat my question is this
How can you sell her? I have a friend that does the same thing. Buys a car or motorcycle in need of repair and when he gets it done,he sells it. I could never do that, you should enjoy that beautiful vessel . Just my opinion
Great job you did on your boat by the way.

Really don’t want to part with it, not part of the master plan but don’t need 3 boats. Have 3 in the warehouse at the moment with the 4th on the way.
Have. 2021 170 montauk that was hardly used since the wellcraft went in back in july. Told the in-laws we should flip the whaler and keep the wellcraft. Answer was no on parting with the whaler. In law pressure that one will have to go.
Then last night they say “ you shouldn’t sell the wellcraft until you know the new boat is good. I’m like wtf! My original plan before acquiring the fortier was to do a v20 custom ctr console and flip the whaler. That didn’t go over well either.
Nothing but compliments over and over on the v20 over the summer so I guess we’ll wait till spring on marketing it.
First time with a v20 and with all the 19-24ft boats I’ve owned over the years this is by far the best riding 20ft hull I’ve been in. Even the kids hate the whaler ride now
