Default V20 is a great boat!!!

Well, I solved my fuel tank leak issue. I had a bad leak at the sending unit. That has been rectified. No issues. I did have a coil go bad in my Yamaha 150. I replaced that for $20.00 (used coil). Changed the plugs. Did a shock treatment of Yamaha Ring Free, running a 93 octane in a seperate 12 gallon portable tank. On a flat ICW the speed gauge reports 46 mph, trimmed out and half a tank of gas. But what is amazing is, that, I filled it up last week, ran out to the 10 mile box cars and back(20 miles), the next day I took my dad fishing, and logged about 13 miles, and then went joy riding and logged 10 miles. I returned to the fuel dock and filled it back up and only put in 16 gallons!!! That is F-----g amazing for a 2 stroke! Mind you I was running between 3800 and 4500 RPMs. The V20 is a great boat.

Hey Steplift, about the "standing under the flair to get out of the rain" bit - I used to park my 4-wheeler under the flair of my '72 - dry as a bone! ;D

I think I need a shed :'(
