NICE BOAT,
I HAVE A COUPLE OF QUESTIONS IF YOU DONT MIND. DID YOU ADD THE WIPER? ANY PROBLEMS WITH WHERE YOU MOUNTED THE GPS ANTENNEA? WHEN WE GOING FISHING?

Boy that '86 is one FINE looking boat - best vintage for the V-20 I'd say ;D!

CT - Thanks. Its an 85! ;D But Like I sid before its identical to yours down to the boot stripe. Therefore, i'd have to agree with your statement. ;)

Franco,

No Probs with the GPS Ant. It works well (has a nice open view of the sky there) , doesnt leak, and I dont stand too much on the foredeck so its not in my way.

The wiper was there when I got the boat and is inoperable. Its so small it would be worthless to use even if you are as short as I am (5 six). Unless you like crouching over to see out of the bottom 5 inches of the windshield in the sloppy stuff when bending over isnt a good idea. :o
Rain X is the way to go for me. I want to remove the wiper and fill the hole.

I'm ready to wet the lines when you are!! 8)

THANKS FOR THE REPLY, GOT A NEW GPS COMING - LOOKS LIKE A GREAT PLACE TO MOUNT THE ANTENNEA. I'LL DISREGARD THE WIPER IDEA, I LIKE RAINX TOO.

D'oh! For some reason I thought yours was an '86 as well. ??? I still use my wiper, but you do have to get yourself in a silly position for it to be worth anything - I even have an operable one on the port side. I was going to look into a bigger blade this season. Speaking of worthless items on the V-20, does your horn work? Mine doesn't.

CT -

The horn works, but I also have the backup air horn. I think its a coat guard reg to have a non electrical sound signaling device?
