Intro new to me V20
 

Hi all,
My name is Anthony and I've gotten myself a nice little V. Once I got it I was doing research and came across this site. When I first saw the boat I fell in love with it but the guy wanted more cash than I had. I told him I wanted but couldn't afford it and if he wanted some work done as a trade to let me know-I'm a painter. I couldn't stop thinking about it for the next couple days thinking of ways to come up with more $$$. Well it didn't work out. A couple months went by and I get THE CALL...." still want to trade?"... HELL YA. Well now I got it and have had it out for about six trips all except one in the carquinez straits here where I live. Each time I am learning valuable lessons as a new captain and boat owner. Here are a couple pics.

So all in all I love the boat my family and friends love it too.
Everyone tells me boat stands for bust out another thousand and I am seeing why.

A couple more...

v-20's love kids & dogs
what the heck kinda fish is that.

NICE !! welcome aboard , your gone love that boat, what are the engine spec's , and prop size . Looks like a nice package

BOAT also stands for bend over and take-it...but nice looking V you have there. Its a great boat for a wide variety of what you want to do on the water.

nice boat and glad to see it being used.
The fish is a Sturgeon we have them in Georgia and but i do not think they are legal to catch here. Darien GA was known for its caviar was supposed to be better than Russian till they wiped out the population. They are making a comeback we See them often on the Ogechee and Altamaha rivers

Congrats and welcome to the forum!!!

There is lots of good reading and information here---ask and you shall recieve info and direction----

Nice.... Thanks. That is a white sturgeon and a helluva fish that one jumped three times once hooked. It has a Mercruiser 165-GM I/O and is a 1975 V20 cuddy... not sure of the prop size.

Hi Cri, welcome to the site. Sweet looking boat. As you've already pointed out, days with your kids make any boats cost cheap. Small suggestion....please get a life vest for your dog also. It's cheap insurance. :beer:
