I run a VMax as well, but it didnโt last that long. Had the top end rebuilt but itโs only on hour 53 after 3 years. Gonna take a while to catch you!
It's only a good cast if you catch a fish...

Post this in the saltwater forum and you'll get a bunch of big numbers to show up. Some of those fourstrokes have several thousand on them.
