Going along the coast I have gone many miles with my 175 and always was great time!
Biggest fish on the V was a 300# Blue Shark while Cod fishing.

Wow - a 300lb blue shark - big. I assume released ? Not edible right.
Only Mako's really worth eating.

yes released, but I have caught a 10' Mako also but not on my boat, thats when a friend started calling me Mako Joe. I did not have a computer at the time, but when I did Mako was taken so thats when I came up with Macojoe and here I am! But while out Cod fishing we have caught many many sharks of that size and bigger

Here I always assumed that you once owned a mako boat......

[macojoe]

nope but have had a few buddy's with them, and i don't like them no freeboard and way to low in the water at least the 20 footers

71 MILES OFFSHORE from Oregon Inlet NC chasing dolphin and tuna.

25-30 Miles Offshore for Halibut/Salmon and no problems so far with gas when filled up before leaving the dock.

Garage has me beat, good to know I'm not the only one that ventures out that far but for me it was 50 miles out of Beaufort Inlet in North Carolina to the Gulf Stream. I had to bring 30 gallons in 5 gallon jugs for that trip. 160 miles round trip at a burn rate of 2.1 MPG.

58 miles out of Rudee Inlet yellowfin tuna and white marlin fishing on my dads v20.

My first month of ownership, my 1986 V20cc made a trip the entire length of the Chesapeake Bay….no problem !

Wow how many gallons of fuel did you use? I know I don't have that kind of range with my 350 i/o.
