What? It was 4 years old. All boat manufacturers make mistakes sometimes

One of the many V20, V21 issues that sunk the company

Every wake boat that has ever been built and sold to some idiot that thinks he has to run within 30 yards of a guy in a bass boat who is trying to enjoy his day without falling off the boat from the wake. Does that count????? Lol

About 40 years ago I was a young airman station at Carswell AFB that sits on the southside of Lake Fork.
One of my buddies had heard that folks were catching tons of crappies in the reeds that were on all the shorelines around the lake.
We decided that we needed to get in on that action. There was a recreation center on base that had all types of sports equipment that
could be signed out. We got us a canoe ! Neither of us had ever even been in a canoe. I think we tipped that canoe about 5 times.
Lucky we never got in water over 3-4 feet deep. We didn't catch any crappie. I hate that canoe,

My pops had a really nice Skeeter that I barely remember as a little kid. Lean times & a growing family forced him to sell and it was replaced with 16' tri-hull with a 50 horse 'Rude. I'm very thankful for it as it got us on the water. You can't put a value on the memories and knowledge gained it in, but man that thing was a cursed POS, lol! Here's a list of some of the mishaps I had with that sumbeech once I was old enough to start taking it out my own. All of these events occurred within a six year period up to 1998 if I'm recalling correctly:

-- Caught in a freak storm on Ray Roberts...having to navigate through standing timber with 4' footers and sideways rain beating against your face as an inexperienced 16 yo boater will never be forgotten.
-- Buddy got it jackknifed in a ditch late one night during a weekend camping trip at Fork. This was after midnight, in the early-90s...no cell phones. Can't remember why I stayed behind in camp while he went out, but he was gone for a few hours & I started to worry. He finally shows up and tells me what happened. He had to trek a good distance and wake some guy up to pull it out with a tractor.
-- Trailer absolutely sucked, unless the water was like glass and you were really lucky that day, you'd have to get in the water and guide it on. That was fun in late winter/early Spring.
-- I got rear ended while towing it, causing all manner of disaster, but eventually got fixed.
-- I shared this story before on here... axle snapped crossing the tracks on the way to ramp at Ray Bob...threw the damn boat off the trailer into the ditch on the side of the road. Took about six or seven good samaritan fisherman to load it on a flatbed of a guy that kindly offered to haul back home while we had the trailer in the bed of our truck...
-- In college, had some engine trouble the day before a tournament at Big Sam. My partner and I were very inexperienced outboard mechanics, but we decided to tear into anyway. His garage looked like a Transformer exploded, and we determined it was bad water pump. Can't remember how, but we somehow managed to locate one and change it. We got it it all back together and went fishing next day. She ran fine, but Forward was now Reverse and vice versa, lol! Oh, and I fell in the water that day...in February.
-- One summer day I thought I'd try to impress this uppity, rich girl with a romantic picnic on the lake. We got stuck on a stump. I tried to rock it back and forth while grabbing the steering wheel with both hands for leverage...it broke off in my hands, lol. I don't think I had another date with that gal.

There's probably some stuff I missing, but these were the first things to come to mind.
