Default Re: Capsizing

Though I've never seen it happen to a V-20 specifically, just like any other outboard, a V-20 with an outboard would capsize once it filled with enough water. When an outboard swamps, for whatever reason, the hull rolls as the center of gravity/bouyancy shifts and the outboard leads the boat over. This I have seen.
