WOW! V 20 in AZ!
Nice looking boat!
Where will you use the boat? Lake Havasu/Parker Dam?
Inlaws have a few places in Yuma.

let see so many lakes to choose from! It will either be lake Pleasant, Bartlett, Saguaro, Canyon, Apache, Roosevelt, Powell, Havasu, or Meed. But for the most part the best fishing is in Apache, Powell, Meed and Pleasant. But the best Wakeboarding is at Bartlett and Apache hahahaah

Holy cow there sure are a lot of lakes in AZ!
I've been to a place they call Lake Martinez but it was very shallow.
I would imagine Lake Mead would be very cool.
Your V 20 looks great! Inside storage certainly help preserve it from that hot sun.

.
Martinez in the the Colorado River and yes it is very shallow not really fit for the outboard and more for jets so i think i will be staying clear of that area hahahhaha

She looks great. Absolutely tremendous. Well done!
