    Bow rail Why ?

    When you choose to install a bow pulpit on these boats you give up the amount of travel on the slider. Reaching for the safety pin on the anchor stay and removing it can be difficult for some standing in the cutty. Being 6' I can do it but others with me may not. Having the anchor mounted on the...

    Bow rail Why ?

    If you ever have to go up on the bow deck in 3-4's having that bow rail in place gives you something to grab when you suddenly slip. If you don't have an anchor pulpit and do everything standing in the cuddy sure, less of an issue. Personally I think the bow rail adds to the overall look of the...

    Who’s got the oldest V boat ?

    When the day comes I'm ready. For right now this 200 H.O. is a beast that pushes the 21 to 49 mph on GPS with half tank and just me. It idles like an angry bobcat with zero smoke cold or hot. The 300 hour maintenance is a MUST. Guy's who neglect it are the ones who find themselves re-powering...
