Numbers look great - are they what you expected?

Sky - I've been in talks with Beaver about remaking my bimini canvas. Told them I was going to send them a picture so they could get an idea. Problem is I haven't been able to take the cover off to get the pics as of yet. Thanks Dave, me too! I still keep the boat under the shed but this...

The other thing about trolling leadcore line is at 3.5 mph the baits only get half as deep as 2 mph so it means letting even more line out to make target depth. I have a couple umbrella rigs that are larger than the alabama rigs. They have a ~6 oz weight built in. Thinking that will help a...

Thought about it but I feel like it is going to add additional complexities that this crew cannot handle :p

I got an original enclosure on here several years back that came off Franco's 1982 V20 with bimini canvas, poles and all. Had to adjust the snaps for the curved side windows on the V21. It served me very well but the front windows and bimini are a little tired so I haven't used it in a year or...

I ended up with the full custom V21 cover from Sky Copper. Just as advertised - tighter than OJ's glove! This thing is really nice. Also got the 4 panel enclosure (brand new from the wellcraft Factory circa 1995) however my factory blue bimini is a bit worn including the zippers that zip to...

Sky, congrats on the special day! Love the boat, looks like you will have a gracious plenty fishing room in the back. I know that is what you were going for.

Hey chrisnev, welcome to the V20 forum!

Nice fish agree on all points

Congrats to your son! You on the other hand are on probation until your performance improves. :ROFLMAO:

I've got the faith!

Amen. Hey Destroyer, good to see you! Its been a while.

I've never had them either. The only trim tabs I had was to tell people to move to one side or another. Sorry, but unfortunately somebody has to sit on the wet side of the boat!
