The previous owner could not tell me much about the boat. I've already spent $1,000+ to get the Johnson 50 VRO back into reliable shape. My question to any and all you is what do I really have here. I have my suspicions but would like a more knowing eye on this one. Edited by Tom W Clark on 08/09/06 - 10:22 PM

Member Personal Page Posts: 16 Comments: 0 Joined: 06/24/06	Thanks Tom. After looking at a lot of these I still have not found pictures of the 15' Sport with the center console. I'd really like to know if I can get a newer 15' center cosole to swap this one out with. I'd also like to get a new set of side decals. But I only seem to see the Red Decals, not the Black ones that are on this boat. Any ideas?

They are authorized by Boston Whaler to make decals. You can get them in many colors.
