Years ago there was someone using an inverted V and doing quite well with
DX. It was later found that he had a long vertical open wire feed line
that was thought to be acting as vertical antenna.

Subject: Re: Topband: verticals by the sea
Is there any advantage to using an inverted VEE by the sea? Didn't I read
inverted VEEs had a lot of vertical polarization?
Reason I ask is I plan to do the IOTA contest on an Island in NB or NS and
have not yet decided on an antenna.
Thanks,
