    395v

    Looking for any other 395V owners, every other boat I find is either in the scrap yard or never gets used. I use mine every weekend.

    Spork, Id love to see your rig.
    Darrall i live the 375V's too. a buddy has one, and it fishes great. At times I'd like the shorter boat.

    I've caught bass off of the corner of that dock behind yours. Heartland tournament a few years ago in early March. It was 13 degrees when we launched that day. Boats were frozen down to the trailers that morning.

    You fish LOZ often? And yes, I've caught many fish in that cove.

    those decals are no longer on the cowl. I got it from 1outboard from ebay, ended up with a bastardised motor.
    the long block is just a quicksilver reman 3.0l with 250 electronics. sitting on an optimax mid section (had a 2001 optimax serial # on the transom bracket). I consider it a 225 with a few modifications.
