I just picked up my first V-20 and couldn't be happier! Its a 1984 Hull, 2001 Trailer, and a 2000 Johnson 150HP. I will be splashing it for our first cruise this afternoon. Hopefully my wife likes it as she put all her trust in me!!!

csvencer,
CONGRATULATIONS MAN !!!!!!!!

You are going to love it !!!

I got ours last year, and have done a lot of things on her recently. Let me know if you have questions.

We go sailing almost every w.e. ( P.R. ) and we have got to know her well.

Congrats on the V.:clap:
More pictures are expected.
If possible take pics of performance stuff (tach, speed, fuel consumption, etc) or at the very least give some description.
Also, add to your signature your location, boat and motor type and year.

Well we had a great run last night. I have been eyeing the v20 for a long long time and now I don't know why I waited so long.

There are going to be plenty of upgrades and I will be sure to document them all. First up is a new electronics panel. Currently I have the stock guage panel with only fuel and battery. I will be adding a tach, 6 switch panel, and most likely flush mounting a Garmin 440S. I don't have any idea about fuel consumption yet but I could easily cruise at 25 mph and topped out at 39 mph. She actually stays on plane right at 20 which is great for cruising at night.

Favorite pic of the night...
