Also, check out the paint. Ratical graphics has a technique where they put water droplets in the paint and it looks just like real water. The first time I saw it, I thought the boat had sat out and there was some dew/water on it, but it was the paint. Pics don't do it justice.

ya dont have to worry about water spots,Thats a cool paint job!!:drink:

Rodney (and James) did mine in late 2005. Can't say enough good things about our experience. What most don't know was that he was one of the first to drive a truck load of relief aid to New Orleans that he gathered personally. Very good folks. TH

Wonder how the boat would handle with twin 1000's on a short stagger and 6's instead of the triples?

Take a look at Saxmans video and pm him. It is a flatdeck but the bottom design is the same.

The current 460 (tall deck) bottom is different than the current 430 (flat deck bottom). Our 430 flat deck has had a few mods and runs great. We saw 109mph with ours when we had 950's, and it had a little more left in it.

that would still be pretty sweet, having all the amenities and being able to run close to a buck.

I think the red and grey boat I posted picks of with trip 675 cheifs ran around 101-102, with their most recent bottom.

John,

Good to hear from you. We ran to Lake Charles this last weekend. Getting across the bay was fun in 4 to 6's. We even had a 30' Baja that made it. 12 boats went.

Where is Cougar?

Tommy
