V-20 w/ enclosed cabin
 
I was out taking a boat ride this past Sunday afternoon and as I was rounding a bend in the river I saw before me a sight that almost brought tears to my eyes. It was a older V-20, I'm guessing between late 70's and early 80's, with a fully enclosed cabin equiped with sliding door and everything. The owner had clearly spent alot of time and probably alot of money achieving this. The windshield looked like it had been pushed forward about 6" and had a more drastic angle leading to the hardtop. The hardtop stretched from the windshield to just behind the captain's chairs, it also had a slew of stainless rocket launcher's lining the back. The sides were fully enclosed as weel as the back, with the exception of the full height sliding glass door. The side windows were also operable and the front windshield was hinged in location's to allow for airflow. Unfortunatley I did not have a camera with me so I could not get a pic. I am going back out this weekend and I will try to spot him. One great thing about living in North Carolina, as soon as you think you have seen one of the best boats around, somebody always makes it better.

I was thinking of doing the same thing to mine with 2x4's and some particle board ;D

Oh and don't forget the 16 penny galvanized nails.

I already have an old sliding glass door that I got off an old mobile home. Its gonna be great! ;D

A true foul weather boat!

Seriously, I wouldn't mind seeing that pic myself.

Hopefully I will get some pics of the boat this weekend. It truly is a pretty machine. It had to be the work of a professional. If i'm lucky I will get a chance to climb around and get some pics up close. I'll let ya know.

I'd love to see some pics. This has one canvas enclosure like seakindly's, so you can get an idea of what a full cabin version might look like.
