Welcome and congrats on the V.

Fish on Sports is the arch that I went with and happy with it. Debated for a long time but fold down mounts as standard equip. and free shipping won out. They also have lot of accessories you can add later if you like.
My V is a 78 i/o.

Yup, sure do - the umbrellas and spoons, mostly from Shark River - Belmar up to Sandy Hook and Raritan.

Stay in touch.

Naaa... Got tired of wire. I use Invader electric downriggers now. I can see the 10# weight on my fish finder and between that and the line counter on the downrigger I know exactly how deep my umbrellas are. Much more accurate. Plus if I'm just using lures or spoons I can stack them on the downrigger wire with clips at different depths so I can fish 2 or 3 rods off each downrigger.

Destroyer I get where your coming from. Down riggers are great for placing the bait where u need to. Tony maja makes a great rig to run spoons with down riggers. Most wire line like Monel has a permanent sink rate so I know the depth with ease

I fish wire as well. My time fishing has been pretty limited since I lost my boat in Sandy, but this year I should be back on track. I'll be back in AHMM for the summer and should be ready for my first spring run since 2011. Looking foreword to some more pics of your new ride.
