The 20 is a MUCH bigger boat than the 19. The 19 is great for fishing alone or with a friend. More than two.....get the 20.

When you go to see them, bring a moisture meter.......

And check the cockpit drains, they are pvc pipe and tend to crack if they freeze. I had a 22 that almost sank due to that problem....not the worst boat I ever owned, but close. Twin 115 Evinrudes with a total of 96 carbs, or so it seemed... As the Prof says, the 20 is a real nice boat.

Find a B-20 Sportsman if you can...and buy it. I passed on one or two and am still sorry. Walter

I only know what's wrong with them........which isn't a great selling tool.

Actually there is a B20 Sportsman on Long island that gets very little use. The owner has a B25 and a B37 as well, and was at the Newport shindig. He might be willing to part with it, but it's perfect.....so it won't be cheap. Let me know if you want me to ask about it.
