swimgrid for 93 v-21????
 
does any one have a v-21 with a swimgrid on there boat? I'm looking for options were to put the fuel tank for the kicker and woul like to keep it out of the way

For the kicker on my '94 V21 I put the 6 gallon tank in the splashwell without interfering with the tilting of the motor. I have the swim step on one side and the kicker/bracket on the other.

i've thought about simply t-ing off my fuel line and running a line to my kicker motor and eliminating the need for the extra fuel tank.would anyone know of any problems that could bring up?

NICE boat :beer:
I pick mine up on Monday so stoked!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I like your setup and will probably go with it then install a set of trim tabs. Do you have a set on yours and if so how much of an improvment was it on the water.

Thanks guys for the compliments.

I don't have tabs. It would be nice to have but I doubt I ever get em. I'm happy with the way she handles overall. I'm sure if I ever rode in one that has em I would probably want em. For now I need rods/reels worse than tabs. :beer:

It's really not a good idea to run your kicker off the same fuel supply as your main. If your main fuel tank gets contaminated with anything you can always use your kicker to get home. But if they run off the same tank then you're screwed. :head:

That's how mine appeared to have been set up. But there was no kicker motor when I got it... just a bracket. So I removed the bracket and the three-way valve. Who needs a kicker when you can have Sea-Tow!

Hello All,
I know this may be a little off topic but Blue Runner, I see what looks to be a seat in the back of the top pic of you boat. Did you buy that or make it? I am getting my first V20 (super excited) next weekend and am looking for some ideas for additional seating.
Thanks!
