Seller says the TG is an '87, but searching around it doesn't look like any 85-88's I've seen...

That is not a topgun...it is a flat deck. There were very few TG's built in 87.

He swears it's a TG. Can you tell by the Hull#?

There were a limited # of TG's built that year but it looks like a flatdeck to me from the pictures. Take the number off of the hull that starts with CRT and call in the entire # to Cigarette...they can verify what it is.

I think that boat has been advertized as a top gun for a couple of years. It may be one but that isn;t the deck you see on TGs

That dash is extremely odd...it doesn't look like a flat deck dash either. All flatdecks and TG's I have been around have the throttles and shifters seperate.

That dash doesn't look like something Cigarette built at all. Boat still looks like a flat deck though.

Even the 87 T/G's look like the 90's T/G's. Same design throughout the years. That's a FLAT DECK!

Yep.

Here is what it should look like...
