How far have you taken your V20 - V21 ?

[bradford]

I believe an old member who I haven't seen on in a while Lesterus, used his V20 during the Mariel boat lift from Cuba and also went to Bimini a few times too. The Bimini trips had a thread somewhere on here with pics.

Had the pleasure on my Wellcraft V20 cc (1986) doing the length of Chesapeake Bay, from north to south and back. Other than a crab pot hung on lower unit and heavy wind thru Kedge Straits went without incident. Camped uninhabited islands only to be waken by high tide at tent. Smith Island and Crisfield worth the layover. Windsurfing and fishing excellent !

I'm thinking if I rig a sail or two..........I can run across to France.

We normally would go 20-30 miles out in the GOM of Louisiana. Which isn't that big of a deal considering the amount of Oil field Traffic out there. As long as you had your safety devices, VHF, Epirb someone is going to find you if somthing happens.

Garage has me beat, good to know I'm not the only one that ventures out that far but for me it was 50 miles out of Beaufort Inlet in North Carolina to the Gulf Stream. I had to bring 30 gallons in 5 gallon jugs for that trip. 160 miles round trip at a burn rate of 2.1 MPG.

Drum Inlet to Hatteras and back
