Re: v20 seaworthyness
Dead rise is one one aspect. An important one I agree but not everything.
I recently fished out of a 2006 HydraSport 29 VX. 24' degree of dead rise, but the boat still road like crap because it had 2 - 250HP 4 stroke Yama's hanging off the rear weighing it down like a anchor. The angle of attack of the hull sitting still was terrible never mind what happened when the power was applied. I firmly believe the balance of a hull is just as important as dead rise. Many of the older boats got it right and lots of the newer stuff made all the wrong concessions on the side of flash and traded off real performance.
