If you talk to some dealers, they will report "some" positive feedback about the V305. Remember, they are FW sallesmen, what would you expect. Here are a few comments from another board about the boat. Some are FW owners, and some are not.

That 30.5 sure looks like a 23-25 ft trailer boat with 3 foot of bow pulpit and 4-5' of swim platform...
Layout in the back looks nice... big windshield sucks.

I am standing on the boat with the binocs. Stephanie says, "what kind boat is that coming across the lake?" My reply as I focus in, "it's not a boat. it's a giant windshield".
WTF? That is an ugly boat.

Who designed that windshield, it looks terrible

I was going to reserve judgement on this boat until I saw one in person, but I have seen enough already, even the photo shoot pictures do not help me like it. IMO, it would be a bad move to add this tall windshield to their cruiser line, as an option maybe, but it will kill sales if it is the only windshield available on a new boat. We must remember , this particular boat is a prototype, so maybe some changes can still be made after they gather input from the boat show tour it is currently on.
