I was reading this thread and I wanted to say I just moved up from a 22' single and now have a 2004 30' Ol. I bought this one because of the good deal and based on a friends 29 Ol that I wanted to buy but wasn't for sale. The 30 in my opinion is far better than the 29 as far as handling and power and the cuddy seems to have a better layout with more room. I still like the 29 though and would recomend the 33 or 36 if your going to move up.

My 36 is for sale!! I am about to place an ad in the classifieds, but its priced right.

i'll be looking for it. BTW what will be the weapon of choice after a 36 Outlaw..... a CIG

Will a 36 hull with 500's give me a HONEST 70 maybe 72ish.

THX.

75. i had the valve springs done at 300hrs, and then did the head gaskets, before i knew it, i refreshened the engines, put hotter cams in, ported the heads. I had em dyno tuned. They run real good.

Oh and to answer your other question, Ive got my eye on a couple of tigers

[QUOTE=29goingon42]Get a late 90's 33' and you will save your time selling a 29 b-cause after a year the 33 or even the 36 will be very tempting. [QUOTE]

Couldn't agree more with this statement. We went from a 24 Outlaw to our Top Gun and never regretted the size. The late 90's 33 & 36 OL's are bad azz! And can be gotten at a good price. Just depends on your price range and what you want.

85k for my 2000 36, 12k in receipts from freshening the engines 20 hrs ago. a/c, fridge, microwave etc, on an aluminum triple axle.

Exactly my point....A lot of boat for a good price.

Steppin' up to a Tiger hmmm? Straight or stepped?

Id love a stepped, but the straights are more in my price range.

This is going to be the endless question for people that can't just go plop down 1/2 a mil on a new boat. Do you buy an older (straight) boat for less money and possibly have more upkeep expenses or a newer step for more money with less upkeep expenses?

If you are looking at straight Tigers my buddy is selling two. The crayola boat and the green,yellow, purple mardi gras boat. The Mardi gras just had a total refit from Lip-Ship and is an AWESOME piece for an outstanding price. 1,000 Teagues and dry 6's. Will run at 100. Boat looks brand spankin' new after Phil was done with it and only used two times after. Thing is SICK! This is the boat I'm talking about.....We were running about 95 in that pic during the SCOPE poker run.

Sorry to hijack the thread.....29, 33, 36 OL's are sweet machines!!
