How far have you taken your V20 - V21 ?
 

How far ( out ) have you run your V for fishing or cruise ?

Can't say I've run my V21 far out, but do run the ocean up and down NJ coast a good distance.
Maybe 50 miles or so in one day.

I do not any more because of gas cost and old age, but for many years I ran my 83 v20 /175 evenrude 30/40 miles offshore ,trolled for 4 hrs and came home with a safe supply of gas. I did this once or twice a week for over 20 yrs. she ALWAYS brought me in sometimes in weather I would like to forget. Not to say I didnot sometimes have to tinker a little and coax a little. this was out of ocean city md

That's quite impressive - what's the " biggest fish " you ever caught out there ?

10 miles offshore was the furthest for me, thats a log way from land!! Around here you are good till noon most days but no matter what the day is like at noon if catching fish or not you head back toward land!! The afternoon wind can pick up and your flat water gets nasty!
Going along the coast I have gone many miles with my 175 and always was great time!
Biggest fish on the V was a 300# Blue Shark while Cod fishing.

Wow - a 300lb blue shark - big. I assume released ? Not edible right.
Only Mako's really worth eating.

yes released, but I have caught a 10' Mako also but not on my boat, thats when a friend started calling me Mako Joe. I did not have a computer at the time, but when I did Mako was taken so thats when I came up with Macojoe and here I am! But while out Cod fishing we have caught many many sharks of that size and bigger

Here I always assumed that you once owned a mako boat......

nope but have had a few buddy's with them, and i don't like them no freeboard and way to low in the water at least the 20 footers

71 MILES OFFSHORE from Oregon Inlet NC chasing dolphin and tuna.

25-30 Miles Offshore for Halibut/Salmon and no problems so far with gas when filled up before leaving the dock.
