I would most likely continue to trailer the boat as I am just 10 minutes away from the launch. From what I***8217;ve gathered, it sounds like launching/loading the 250, solo, isn***8217;t too bad. What I don***8217;t like about the situation is that It is bare bones in regards to fishing equipment. I would either need to move $10,000+ of equipment off of my V20 (which would make it worth very little), or out fit the set up the 250 with new gear, and recoup some cost by selling the V20, fully loaded.

Yeah, this is one of the bigger reasons why I am considering it. Any more than 2-3 people on the V20 is tight. I do fish a lot by myself, or with a buddy and sometimes his son, but I know I would take more folks out if I had more space. It may be wishful thinking, as they are both prone to motion sickness, but I would hope that my wife and daughter would spend more time on out there in the 250. The cabin looks pretty comfortable for that size of boat. Definitely a tough decision.

Any thoughts on if it would be a wet ride without the flared bow of the V20?
