Would you move on from V20s or do an ultimate make-over...?

I think I would have a lot full of 'em bein' redone... 8)

Hate to say it, but if I hit the Lottery, I'd be moving on. Nothing against a fine boat like the V20, but there are a couple of others that I would like even more.

I'd keep the V20 as the waterskiing, tubing, teach-your-kids-to-boat-by-thirteen boat. After a complete makeover, transom closing and bracketing, of course, right MJ? ;) That'd be on the lift on one side of my dock, and on the other side, would be a Fountain 29 Sportfish with twin 250s. This of course is at my waterfront estate on the eastern shore of the Chesapeake. Oh, and I forgot about the 40 Hinckley... ;D

I would definitely keep the Pipe Dream, but kinda like peake I'd add another boat for cruising, in my case a Maine lobster yacht, 32-38'. I've got several in mind, but I don't have to worry about that anytime soon.

I'd have to send her, no give her to my son and move on to the bigger Seacraft. Umm. Much bigger electronics radar, dock her at an island in the keys. Yeah get one of those planes that lands on the water to get to her. Stock the island hut with hum, lots of bait and get sorry. yep. Thats it. Wouldnt be worth nothin.

I would keep it and rig it out with everything possible and buy me a bigger boat for the family to spend weekends offshore just chillin but the V-20 would be hooked up to the biggest RV to travel across country fishing everywhere i could.

I'd make Seakindly an offer he could not refuse then I'd have my V21. Repower it with Raps Honda four stroker and add a radar arch with all the rocket launchers I wanted and in the cuddy I'd post a picture of my old V20 sport. Bill Mac ;D

I'd put a nice new Yammi on my v20 and keep it in a slip next to my Buddy Davis. ;D

I'd keep it with: 1. armstrong bracket w/platforms on both sides, 2. Yamaha 225 four stroke, 3. custom L shaped lounge seating on port side, 4. galley unit w/fridge and baitprep station behind helm seat, 5. head w/holding tank, pump out and macerator and 6. I'm thinking a light yellow or green hull and new awlgrip all around. Then I'd buy a 28' Chris Craft launch w/twin Mercruiser 496 Mag HO I/Os (425 hp each) and every option (especially the thru hull exhaust & wetbar) for entertaining non-fishing oriented friends on leisurely (+70mph) jaunts over to bars on Long Island or Statue of Liberty runs.
