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.

Hmmmm, straight-bottom or T/S? The cabin looks like a newer style covergirl, but the cockpit looks older with that map cover on the passenger side, old-style seats and hatch.

I believe you are talking about the white 2000 TS that had 750 cobras n 6s. That boat was sold to a guy in Kentucky I think and re-rigged with 525s and bravos

Your good pal! That 2000 was originally bought unrigged with just 6s. The original motors were built by Typhoon and never ran. Yes they were prochargers. After much litgation the boat was rerigged by Randy at Cobra until it finally went to National Liqidators. The boat had just been updated with a Fineline interior just before the accident. Storage got the best of the boat. I saw the boat in Lake Cumberland docked right next to me and filled in the new owner of its history. He did a good job cleanin it up. Lotta memories on that boat. That was the boat that gave me the inspiration to do mine.

Why in the heck would someone do that?
The boat went to national without power. If Im not mistaken the new owner said it was a budget thing. I figured it would be more work to redo the transome but hey what do I know
Can you post some pics of your boat? Love that paint scheme on yours!!
Thanks it was fun building it.

Your boat is bad-ASS by the way. I love to see people go big on the "midsized" models like you did.
