I have guys here with Seacrafts that stay in the upper 20's also maybe low30's but that's it, unless they want to take a beaten or get wet.
I loved my V20 here for 9 years but it was time to go!! That thing could bang with the best of them! A bunch of times I could just do 15 mph and wasn't a comfy 15 either! They are great Bay boats and give a great ride on flat days, but get a 1 foot chop you know it!
CB had a center console and it was better then the cuddy, it was a great boat and I went to a bunch of places I should never have done, and always made it home! But I am so glad to have moved on.

Hey eyeball, I mean Macojo - did you have tabs on your V20 ?
I agree with you 100% regarding the ride, BUT - after I installed the tabs the ride characteristic is MUCH better.....no more pounding in small waves when the cutting edge of the bow is brought down just a little.
