The extra length and a little more beam and bigger cuddy would pretty much solve any problem I have with my V.
Here you go, 5 inches wider, 3 foot longer hull, and a bigger cuddy like the V-20's(they also offer it in 2 different cuddy designs).

That pic is interesting.

Guess I'm partial to the classic lines of the V / V21.
It just looks like a " boat" vs some of the " floating molds" I see .

There are some high end producers that mfg boats similar to the V, bigger, and costing
many times more.

Sometimes you come across something that is just "perfect" the way it is built, and despite many many imitations it still remains the favorite for a lot of difficult to understand, unspecified reasons. Vice Grip pliers and Channel Lock pliers are just two examples. I submit that the V20/21's are in that same category. There are countless other hull designs, sizes and shapes that have come and gone and even though they have been out of production for 18 years now the classic lines of the V's remain an all time favorite. They continue to gather looks of approval and comments of respect to this day. They are simply the best in their class.

If God didn't have a purpose for us we wouldn't be here, so
Live simply, Love generously, Care deeply, Speak kindly.

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
