Does anyone know or could someone check the overall length of a six from the transom to the propnut? Thanks in advance......Roger

fat boy was out running today

Re: Straight-Bottom Top Guns with#6 Drives How many??
 

Fat Boy has #5's on it


Roger,
I'm going down to my boat this morning. I'll measure that for you. :cool: I think it's around 4 feet, which makes a Top Gun with #6's equal to a 47' Fountain!! :D :evilb: :drink: :evilb:

Re: Straight-Bottom Top Guns with#6 Drives How many??
 

your right... sorry... fat boy is full stagger t/g

Re: Straight-Bottom Top Guns with#6 Drives How many??
 

Thanks Craig! I really appreciate that.

Re: Straight-Bottom Top Guns with#6 Drives How many??
 

It's still in the Newport (Cal.) area.

Re: Straight-Bottom Top Guns with#6 Drives How many??
 

48.5 inches from the transom (just underneath the transom assembly, above the notch) to the back of the propshaft.


I know what you are thinking Roger, Just Do It!!!!!! :D :evilb: :drink:

Re: Straight-Bottom Top Guns with#6 Drives How many??
 

Yikes good thing there are no fountain lurkers in hear or all hell would break loose. And like Craig said, just do it Roger. :drink: NK

Re: Straight-Bottom Top Guns with#6 Drives How many??
 

Thanks Craig.
N.K;
I think that it would be a lot cheaper just to glass on a ''beak''. :D

Re: Straight-Bottom Top Guns with#6 Drives How many??
 

Thanks Craig. I actually browsed this thread before I asked....hoping to find some info.

Did anyone ever find a picture of "Kangaroo Rat" or the "Velvet Hammer" boats. If they are still floating and adding Dr. Bob's boat, that would make 13 straight-bottomed #6 TopGuns.

I had a pic of Kangaroo Rat somewhere. Can't seem to find the darn thing! As Nauti Kitty said - it is one bad azz TG. BIG power, heavy as heck with $40k worth of audio/video equipment, and threw a rooster tail you could see miles away!! The #6s were on boxes also.

Sweet! Thanks mate!:drink:

I'd rather listen to that Aussie chicks accent.....and the motors.

I have a picture of it from the '05 KW worlds run from our hotel room at the Biscayne Mariott. I'll post it when I find it.

The video said '06 run but I think that was the '05 run. We were running behind them and saw them pull off rapidly and pop the engine hatch. Being good California boaters (not like all the FPC members that flew by!) we pulled over to make sure everything was ok. They were really nice, said they had some water pump issue or something. They limped in from there, we were right outside Gilberts (key largo).

I had thought the stereo value was higher than that they had over 1300 labor hours in it alone I found the invoice and original build objectives I found on the web along time ago. I attatched the objectives and teh last two labor invoice pages. I wish I had seen it sounded like it was real a real monster from spec says it hi 135 db YIKES. Not sure but I think the guy who did the stereo was a db champ from Texas

Ttt

another thread from way back machine.... does anyone know if "come fly with me" is still in Vegas?

There is an awesome straight bottom on Lake Cumberland at State Dock. I don't have a pic but I've been told it is a '94 and it looks like a 2009. Anybody know the boat?

I know the one you refer to. It has been on here for sale once or twice. It has VI drives, and lots of orange, blue, yellow, and red paint. It is beautiful.

Craig, just curious... Did your TG have TRS or Bravo originally? I only ever saw the boat after it came back from Cigarette.

It had Hawk 572's and #3 drives when new. I think that all kevlar hulls had #3's from the factory back then. I'm not sure if they all came with the fine corinthian leather or not. :drink::drink::eek:

I've got some pics with the original paint and radar arch:cool::party-smiley-004: I'll post them on Monday.

Here are a few pics in factory dress.:eek::drink:

No it's not....It's "gone".

dammmnn that thing is soooooooooo oldschool.
what was wrong with keeping it that way.
that thing in that costume belongs on the miami vice set!

worth bringing back up

Yes it is Thanks.

How many 38T/S bottoms have 6s?

I dont know but If YOU are morning Smoke you need to be here anyway. Just because!
Was checkin it out in KW. Rock On!

There's not many #6 T/S's


Toms "Hot for Teacher"
The yellow boat that rolled
Your boat Joe
And there's at least one or two other I can't think of off hand. Anyone else think of the others?

Heavy Metal Thunder/Pruple boat

What happened to "Come Fly With Me"???


Six seasons later...still love our boat. I try to do something each year to keep it fresh. New engines, drives gone through, new exhaust, new intercom system, new complete stereo system/wiring, etc..... That way I won't open my eyes one spring and realize that there is a chitload of stuff that needs to be done. This winter it's getting a new cabin and a "new style" windscreen for sure and maybe a cockpit "re-do". That may need to wait until next winter due to timing/logistics.

Here's an updated pic from this past October.

Stolen....


your boat is straight bad azz! What are you updating in the cabin? You re-doing and upgrading it to the mid 90's cabin or a cover girl cabin or are you just re-upholstering?

Glad it was brought to life again. The obards have been slow since before xmas

There's a white 2000 that has wet sump 6's on it out there too. Martin Marine had it for sale years ago, and I remember it having Procharged motors & a really basic paint design. I think I remember seeing it again, and it had no power.
