That may be, but I catch my share of fish on my V21 and it is a beauty !

I ran a one of the rare V-17 Wellcraft CC for years (not the 18'). I think that hull (Alim) still holds the Miami to New York outboard speed record for that size boat (16'-8"). I used to think about just jumping in the water right after I launched the boat and get it over with, because I was going to get wet in that Open Fisherman. I finally busted the stringers loose in it and split the bottom in it.
The Wellcraft V-20 had a very long continuous production run. Still a lot of them around these parts of Florida.
