Your Dream V20 $ No Object

[RABBITFISH]

If you had unlimited funds and a V-20 hull, what would you do?

My wish would be for a mother boat that I could pick up my V20 and set on deck and travel anywhere I wanted! Sleep and live on mother boat and fish on my V20!

Wow, this is a great thread. I'd go with a Pompanette captain's seat and convert the port side into a custom couch with a gigantic fish box underneath. Also remove the windsheild and add a hard top with eisenglass enclosure on 3 sides and a removeable eisenglass rear curtain.

I'd buy they very best epirb and compact lifeboat money could buy. Then I'd rig it to the teeth with Shimano 30 wides, replace my 150 2 stroke with a new 150 4 stroke and head for the canyons!

That about sums it up.

It is sea worthy and dry enough to run thirty to forty miles off shore and fish for any pelagics you have running and in the cold weather with the canvass hard top you could literally fish all year long bringing portable heat into it.

I can attest to that! Done both and these boats are freakin awesome IMO!

I had the money and sold the V and purchased a bigger boat. Its sad as I see my V often and its just sitting at the guys dock and has been used twice in 2 months. The bottom is painted but the guy never painted the hydraulic area that sits in the water and it had never seen barnicles before and was very clean. The boat is dirty and I bet he never uses the flush on the motor and there was never a time the boat was used and not flushed when I had the boat. I wish I would have turned down his offer and waited for someone who would care for the boat and not just let the thing sit there and rot. I knew the guy and knew this would happen but he paid more then what I wanted and I even talked him out of the GPS unit. Oh well.
