Default WTB V-20 and a question.

Hello all, I am in the market for a 20' boat and the V-20 keeps catching my eye. I love all the room it has in the back of the cuddy version. I fish and crab probably 50/50. I crab mostly solo so I am wondering if any of you have done this with a V-20 cuddy? Maybe a kicker? Thanks, and let me know if you have a boat to sell. I am in Annapolis Md but willing to travel for the right boat.

Chris

Are you pulling traps or running a trot line? I have stone crap traps i put out in the winter, but Florida only allows 5 for recreational, so not that big a deal. There is a member here, Snoozer, i think who runs traps out of his in the keys.

I run both depending on the time of year. Probably more trotline. Less stress on the old bones! LOL!

It seems a little awkward to run trot lines out off, the side steering will work but the side glass would be in the way for the dip net, i think. Also not sure about placement of roller wheel. Could probably be set up for two people pretty easy, just not sure about solo.

As far as traps, lotsa room doe a culling board on the stern. Pull on one side , dump and re-bait, and slide off the other. Room to stack also.

Whatever you do post pics and show us some crabs
