Thanks for the warm reception, gents. This is probably the smallest 'audience' forum I've been on, and I think that's what makes it a special in a way, like that little neighborhood bar in your hometown where you can stop in no matter when and run into a friendly face or two. Cheers!

Hey, V20 forum Having sold my V going on 7 years now and turning over the reins for V20 t-shirt printer, I don't come here too often. But I was fishing in the cold Pocomoke Sound yesterday and saw a nice V20 CC, T-top, pilot house-style enclosure, outboard bracket conversion. It made me wax...

Merry Christmas, everybody. I peek in from time to time. Thought about my V20 a lot on my 2nd to last fishing trip as I was soaked from drenched by the wet ride in the SeaCraft. Not much compares to the V20 flare! MJ - Pulling for ya...hope life deals you a better hand in 2014. Hang in...

Shoulda' got it, reel'. Sent it at 1:35am...maybe went to junk mail? If not, lemme' know.

GW - I probably let a little of the frustration of not being able to get to this come through in my reply, so my apologies as well if my tone was kinda d!ck-y. Let's still go with your source as at this point it'd be better for all involved to take the sure thing at three weeks or so, over me...

Easy, GW, may want to brush up on copyrights. I used to own a V-20 and was a regularly contributing member. I did all the design work and took on the shirt projects to support the site and online community. None of it was commissioned, I didn't release it or surrender rights to it, and it's...

Good job on the weight loss, MJ. Prayers and thoughts for good outcomes with the other battles! Take care, buddy. Will

Lol, Willy. Lest I answer under the influence myself of a couple of long pours of Jeremiah Weed, I defer to MJ. I'm pretty sure he will lay it all out in a new thread with the final offerings, pricing and ordering instructions. So consider this thread a preview and don't worry about what's...

Ahoy, gents Glad to see some buzz about the shirts. All feedback is good. Destroyer’s neighbor is right…mostly. White and ash gray shirts are cheaper than colored shirts of the same shirt style number, which themselves are the same price, e.g. black, navy, green, gold, red all cost the same...

Nice fish and pics.

CPG Seaboard is a competitive product and it was a little cheaper than King Starboard. I bought some years ago from a company that was selling scrap pieces on eBay, but I can't find the name of the outfit. When I Googled it, a sponsored ad came up and I clicked the link...

Disagree. NOAA/NWS gives wave heights in forecasts as crest to trough, not crest to mean. http://www.weather.gov/glossary/index.php?letter=w Basically, it's the height of the wave 'face' you'd be seeing. It just feels like they're wrong about the forecast by a factor of 2. ;)

Oh yeah, seeing her lines again... I miss her. At the time, I just didn't have the $$$ to replace the POS motor and with 1 yr.old twins, I just needed out of the whole rig. Not the hull's fault at all.

Yup, my old V. Hull was very clean outside when I sold it and it looks like the buyer kept it up or even made it better. Inside was very good with a couple spongy spots in the floor and the panel above the gas tank should've been replaced. IIRC the transom was solid, but the aluminum or...

I've fished that area from a party boats close to 20 yrs. ago, but I don't have firsthand experience at the helm with the type of seas up there. It all depends on the wave period and less about how "far" you are offshore. 2'-4' on the Chesapeake is a back-busting washing machine of short waves...
