[Pipe_Dream]

The construction company I work for had two V-20s, along with 2 other boats, for running crews and small loads of materials to a neighboring island. All the boats suffered from neglect and abuse, but I cleaned this one up and my boss said I could use her for pleasure, and in exchange I did the maintenance. A good friend and I fished her several seasons, and we both remarked how the hull handled like no other we'd ever been out on. This while we were phasing out working across the water. Slowly the other 3 boats were sold and I eventually acquired the Pipe Dream from the company (we are a utility contractor, we lay pipe so the name came naturally!). When the old 'Rude gave out I decided to get rid of all the scars from her first life, AND I found this website, so basically I lucked into the V-20 world! ;D She is the first powerboat I ever owned (I used to sail), and may be the last.
