Slot the storage compartment between the seats is accessible from inside the cuddy door, not a hatch in the floor. Where the legroom is in the cuddy, this area extends up under the deck 12 - 18 inches. This would be the perfect place to add 10 - 15 gallon freshwater washdown ;D

Here's one negative on the V-21 IMO - the transom hatches is really not big enough for 2 batteries, so I keep a spare in the cuddy storage I mention above.

Hope this helps. There are some pics of my V21 in my V20 gallery ::) if you haven't seen them yet.
