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.
Glad you still love your gun Craig. Your doin an amazing job with the boat. Im tryin to find something that suites me for years to come. Have the Hawk now, gonna try it this year and see how I like it. Lookin to "settle down" now and just up grade a hull I fall in love with. Hopefully the Hawk performs well.

The curiousity was killing me, so I broke out my Vcard with all of my old pics. Here are the only two pictures I have of the boat I mentioned above. Maybe it will jog someones memory that has more:

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

Yes thats the one that now has bravos. The previous owner was from Jersey. He was the one that rolled the Popeys cat in 08 and subsequently lost the cig. It was sold thru National Liquidators without power and repowered with 525s n bravos.

Tank... Leavin it up to you to get a tally n pics>>> your way better at this than me! LOL cant wait to get you on the cig in Havasu.

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.

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

Thanks it was fun building it.

Cool, thanks for the update!

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

What’s the story on the boat with the splattered paint looking graphics? I saw it for sale and want to go check it out.
