The gas cap on my V has course threads, the hole has fine threads, I guess the prior owner lost the original and replaced with this one. I have been unable to find a fine thread gas cap so far, any suggestions?

I noticed on my first two fishing trips with my V-20 that is drifts differently than any other boat I have ever owned. Other boats I have had drift with the stern to the wind and seas, my V drifts almost beam to seas (sideways).  Every time, no matter which way I turned on the way into the seas...

My port side dash had two layers of vinyl floor tiles glued to it. I spent about 2 hrs getting all the glue off of it with acetone. Now I have to fill all the holes and mount my new (to me) fishfinder over there. I was going to use the stuff HAMMER sent me to just recover the dash, but I am...

My Sitex CVS 106 arrived the other day that I bought off of ebay. It seems to work in the kitchen. I have ordered a transom mount transducer for it.

We appreciate you sharing and all, but will you get your arctic air back up there where it belongs, the high here in sunny NC was 44 degrees and the wind has blown all day.  Its not that cold here in January. The kids had to wear winter coats hunting easter eggs this morning.

My fenders on my trailer were looking really crappy so I put on a nice new set of shiney ones. The new ones were $54 each at Tractor Suppy Co., plus 12 bucks for new SS bolts, nuts, washers. It looks a lot better now, and I am not afraid that the fender will colapse on me when I am stepping in...

As many of you may have noticed, the cabin on my V will be used by my three kids for napping, I was going to just let them use bean bag chairs but I think I will get cushions for them. Does anyone have a decent set they are not using? Or who has had some made that can give me a ballpark on...

Saturday my family and I took the new to us V-20 out for a little ride. The ocean was slick and we saw probably 50 bottle nose dolphins chasing bait and a sea turtle. We also caught and released some small black bass. (The wife said she was going out for dinner, throw em back.) I am very...

I am in the market for a good fishfinder. I would like a color unit but I no likey the prices of new color units. I had a Koden CVS 102 on my old GW and really liked it. I could tell what kind of fish we were going to catch before dropping down the bait. I doubt I will ever find myself in...

Anyone else have this problem? My steering rubs on the transom. I had to grind down the transom cap so that I didn't have to turn left all of the time. (Sure thats fine on Sunday, but.....)

This guy has you beat. (At least I hope you had a better day than this.) The truck was carrying one role of steel weighing 30K pounds and one roll weighing 14K pounds. He swears he was doing 35 but I'm thinking 55ish. His passenger was banged up a little, but no visible injury. I am...

The previous owner of my V built a replacement rod box on the starboard side because the plastic one pooped out. He did a pretty nice job other than selecting regular screws instead of stainless. I replaced the screws, well most of them (the batt. on my drill gave out). He had "Rod Savers" in...

If you are not familiar with this, see the "Tragedy in my town" post. There is a fund set up at the school for the Chavis family. Anyone who wants to send money or anything else can send it to: Randleman Elementary School Attn. Principal Reeder 100 Swaim St. Randleman NC 27317 Make...

Well the Merc is history and my wallet is fat, at least until I pay my credit card bill. The plate that was on the V to "convert" it to a 25" transom turned out to be a piece of sheet metal that was just filling the space, it had no structural integrity. They drilled some holes above the...

;D

A lady who works at the elementary school where my wife teaches and my kids go has four children ages ranging from 2 months to 5 years. She is an assistant teacher, or was, she had medical complications with the last child and is out of work right now. Yesterday her husband was killed in a car...

I have noticed that when it rains I end up with some water in the floor of the cabin. I havent gone out and gotten in the cabin while it's raining but I am assuming that is is comming from around the sliding hatch. Is this just the way it is, of can you fix it?
