There are guys out there that buy these beasts w/o knowing what it takes to get'em going and keep them that way. Now they can't/won't get'r done.

Btw, don't sell the 24... coolest FF there is, and i'd hate to see it get in the wrong hands.
Hey SR
To quote El Indio "it's not easy and it's not cheap" and if you are easily overwhelmed, you're gonna crash!
Other than that, it's great!
The Firefox probably should go at this time in my life. One offshore powerboat is easier for me to focus on. I do get attached to things. That is good and bad. Good because I never worry about a possible money loss. Bad because too much inventory slows me down. So it will be up for sale. God, I hope Dreamer and Panther don't call on it, talking to those two is like going to a funeral. LOL!

I agree, but I hope when I get it finished, Delivery at least equals anticipation! I feel that getting what you really want and keeping it for a long time is the best way to extract satisfaction.
To be continued

Your loss...I have a buyer for your boat.

Good luck and enjoy the rest of your day.

Those Lipship 20' Cigarettes are spectacular! Talk about "Pride of owership" wouldn't I love to have one! I called LipShip and spoke to Phil about the last new 20 available. He said a Russian guy built a 50' Maurader and then the 20' to match. He did not take delivery on the 20, I don't know about the 50. Hey!.......Russian guy, Grey/orange, 50' Cigarette Maurader, could it be the same guy that........ah what's the difference, it doesn't matter.
That last 20' is fabulous!

Spoke to my friend about Cold War this morning and he decided it was too much of a commitment for him. I said at least you thought it through and came to that determination before you bought it. Those big 3 engine Apache Powerboats are fantastic, but you better have the $.

The Russian buyer backed out of the 50 and the 20 before they were completed. The 50 sold and will stay in Fl. The 20 is still for sale I believe. Both amazing machines!
