			Hey guys (and gals) I ran across this last night and while it doesn't apply to the V20s (at least I don't think it does) it still seemed like interesting reading, if not a little scary for those of us who may go out on other people's boats that are a bit newer.

			Reel, I don't know, but I'm afraid that most of the manufacturers are headin down that path with new boats. It's a whole lot cheaper to build em with "composite" materials I would imagine.
