would like an opinion from everyone

If you want a V-20 on steroids, look at the DUSKY 233. It is 3 inches wider, 3 feet longer, and just looks to be alot bigger boat in comparison. Of course you coudl also look at teh DUSKY 256 which is 3 inches wider than the 233, and 2 feet longer, but is still simliar in design to the V-20 with a moderate dead rise, and a big bow flare going on up front. Also the newer WELLCRAFT 23 footers(not the 228 or 230, but I think it's the 233) is a soft riding boat and can be pushed by moderate HP.

I'm pretty happy with the ride of my 99 22WA. Not sure if this is the model hull Ferm was referring to. The LOA is actually 23'2". The hull is a bit different than a v20. My first boat was a V 18 and I loved the ride. I moved up to a 21 Striper WA and I never liked the way it rode, impulse buy due to the wife wanting a cabin.
