    Slalom Ski Storage in a 20V

    Does anyone know how many slalom skis can be stored in the port sides ski storage area on a 20V. We have 5+ slalom skiers in the family and I am wondering how many skis can be put away while in their vinyl cases?

      I don't think you have anything to worry about.

        The rear storage it's self is huge on the 20v's, and runs all the way to the cooler on the port side, no bulk-head.

        Here is a cell-phone pic of the starboard side. (sorry, not the best)

          I remember that the storage compartments are huge but on port side there is an area that as you say runs up to the cooler.

          What I was wondering is how many skis can be stuffed in there vertically one on top of the other.

          Just wondering so no big shakes,
          Thanks,

            I've got the 22 Ve, and though there is a good bit of room, getting more than a couple in there is tough because of the bindings and the ANGLE at which you must try to force them through the hatch, under the seat bottoms and around the partitions in there. I've put two in, both of which only have rear toe plates, and probably could fit more, but they definitely don't just slide right in!

                wow that's gonna be tough. I guess as the season rolls I will need to buy a ski rack or 2 if my group insists on using their own skis

                  Have them purchase the rack!!!!!!!! Now, that is if you want one and they can afford it.

                    If you had to you could throw a slalom in a wake rack but you'd look like a fool doing it.

                      I fit 2 wakeboards on thier sides in my port storage. The storage space goes all the way up behind the seats from the floor to the top of the gunwhale. I would bet you could get 5 skis in there with some finagling. Might not be easy to get to the one you want without shuffling a bunch but I think they will fit. I can stuff 2 wakeboards, a set of skis, and a Super Mable (3person tube) in my storage locker.

                      Keep in mind also your starboard locker has plenty of room for skis to run up through under the seats. You can easily get 2-4 more in that side. We keep fishing poles in that spot and they fit no problem at all--I can't imagine your ski is longer than a fishing pole!

                      If none of those suggestions work, drill a hole in the tip of each one, tie them to the transom hooks and drag them behind the boat. They float right
                      Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?

                        I kinda of like the last suggestion but I think I will go to monster towers after tax time and get a ski rack or two.

                        As to port side I have no storage under the seats. That is where the primary battery is on a 07 20V.

                              Can you relocate the battery?
                              Also, I'd rather not have a battery under a seat.
