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!!

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?
