 Questions: 
 
 1. How fast WOT ?  Real curious about the performance with the etec 175. 
 
 2. Fuel burn at cruising speed ? 
 
 3. What are those teak looking pads on the gunnels ? 
 
  
 We should park our boats side by side.  Set up the same except for the engines. 
 ( mine's a 96' carb'd 150hp evinrude )

 Ya know, I have no idea how fast she is or what the fuel burn is. Someday I'll buy a GPS so I can measure speed.  I added the teak steps because I really like teak accents on these boats - plus I wanted a step pad for the kids and wife getting on/off the boat in bare feet. My favorite V20 is Emmet Fitzpatrick's in the Gallery section of this site. I also really enjoy maintaining the wood. At some point I'm going to replace my dash with a teak or mahogany one. When I do, maybe I'll add a fuel flow meter as well.
