Damn! *I'm glad you and your buddy are OK MJ. *The ocean can be a real biotch sometimes. *
But just think, now you have a great, scary ocean story to tell and impress the chicks. ;D

Man, sorry ta hear about your accident. Im glad you all will be ok. I know youll have that ole V back right in no time. I had a close call 6 years ago. A wave hit me in the side, almost threw me over the side of my 16 ft. Carolina (plywood) boat in the mouth of the Albemarle sound. I was by myself, scared the $hit out of me. Since then Ive learned ta have a great deal of respect for the water, even small bodies of water.Be careful but get back on that horse and go.

Thanks again everyone!!

Thanks for all the offers to help with parts and stuff!!

I have the boat at home and I am at the camp grounds, I will be going home tomorrow and will be able to ck everything out well.

I belive all damage is just going to be the windshied and supports. Everything else did very well!

Hamerhead you can suport the windshield all you want, if you hit a wave like I did it is still going to be gone!

I think I am going to get the windshield fixed up and clean the boat up.

Then she is going up for sale, It has been a good boat for 9 years and has seen its share of big water!!
I have been thinking this for a long time now, and for the places I fish I have een luckky all these years!

we will see?

So far Axe has a windshield for me and I have to wait for the shipiing charges? I am going to be fishing with out a windshield starting next week till I get his.

Thanks all!!

MJ:

Say it ain't so. Rather than sell, we should start a V20 museum and induct it as the first.

As for parts, I'll trade you a pump for the center glass of your windshield.
