The V-20, like any machine, has compromises.
I don't see anything spectacular about the hull, especially compared to current designs. The quality control also sucked.
That said, I have never been on another boat that functions better as a whole than the V-20.
What sells me is the layout. With the V, you get 360 degree fishability like a center console, you get dry, lockable storage, a huge, deep, safe cockpit, and in calm water you can still sit on the bow and sunbathe if anyone does that anymore.
I would love a Judge 27 hull, with an interior layout like a giant V-20. An average human could probably sleep in it, and maybe have room for a head as well. Still trailerable and could be powered with a single 350 Suzuki dual prop. And you could fit three rods in each side's rod holder cutouts.
I don't know if they would sell today or not. Everyone is more worried about buying something that impresses the neighbors rather than thinking through what works best for them. Thats why you cant give away anything other than a center console these days.
