A welcome shift in the site has begun once again. Ever notice how at this time of the year, we start seeing lots fewer "off topic" posts and "modification" posts and start seeing lots of "repairs" and "fishing" posts. It's a beautiful thing. It means y'all (at least those north of the Mason/Dixon line) are starting to use your beloved V's and are out there killing fish!!!

I am ready to see my V again, its been too long, but I'm going to the coast Memorial weekend, and I'm bringing her back (on her new trailer) so I can work on her more, and teach the kids to waterski at the lake, they didn't care much for trying it in the salt water.

thats a good idea, drinking salty water when learning isnt fun.

But when the jellyfish arrive there plenty of incentive to stay up!

I'm sure I can "go big", and I'm just as sure I would crash hard when I came down.
Ski pole is on my list as well.......right under rear bench seat (hope they dont get in each others way).

One reason I LIKE my folding chairs...if they're in the way, move 'em...I use 'em facing each other, facing forward or aft...

Can see 'em here in normal position...they've never had even a tendency to tip..

When towing, I turn them facing aft against the seat-boxes so passengers can watch the action...
Take 'em out and stow them for fishin'...really works well...JMHO...

I agree, I have 3 of em, but with my splashwell setup, they wont sit in the back like yours do.
