Default My First Day Out!!!

This is a great boat!!! I was on the ocean yesterday cruising at 40 mph, without a drop of saltwater getting on me. The boat handle great, the 1990 Yamaha 150 propelled the boat at an impressive 48 mph according to the Yamaha spped gauge, I am gonna use my K-band doppler to test the true speed though. I love this boat. I think it was money well spent.....Dirk

Congrats . . . It's a beautiful ride especially straight into the chop. Just remember to slow down in steep following seas, b/c the bow can dig in sometimes. Otherwise I have to say the v20 is the best riding most versatile 20ft boat ever!!!
