    2000 2520 deep or modified v?

    Looking at a 2000 2520. Owner says it’s a deep v but the transom is open. I thought deep v’s came with closed transom and motor apron? I know they deep v’s have two lifting strakes “unsure of proper term” but the boat is in the water and I can’t tell. Can anyone help me out? Thanks
