What, are you guys serious!? Know one knows who owns it?? Here's a pic from our room in Biscayne bay. It's the only pics I have. The boat is SICK! Big power, #6's, stand up bolsters in the back, dash looks like something out of star wars. It looks like an older Top Gun re-done.

I was hoping someone on here would have more pics. We stopped to check on them when they broke and they said they just had some motor work done so there were a few bugs to work out. But that thing is so SICK!!

Yo Tank. Nice meeting you and your wife in Key West. How was the tiger ride?
I went on a couple of poker runs with the rat 5-6 years ago. The boat was (is) owned by a guy named Charles Burnett, I think. London guy flew over to cruise around once in a while. 1200's and 6's Stereo was around 40k 8-9 years ago. The guy who did it posted the spec's on his website but I can't remember what that was. I do remember a very cool amp rack and 12 12" subs. Boat was heavy with air, genny and stereo but it was still around a 100. Nice ride. Did not see it down south. Too bad. NK

Did a small poker run with him in '95 or '96. I'm not sure when the heavy ass stereo stuff went into the boat, but on that particular PR, he ran with a red 112 mph Fountain all the way to the end. He later told us that it was about a 106-108 mph boat, at that time.

The boat was displayed at the Miami show around the mid '90s. I thought it had something to do with Australia too but it doesn't. I don't know if Charles still owns it but it's a cool boat. He hung out with me at LOTO 4th of July weekend in '97. Great guy.

NK, it was nice meeting you too. The boat ride was all good. No probs (thank god).
If anyone has anymore pics of this boat it would be worth showing others how sweet it is for an older gun. I should've snapped some pics of it while we were at Biscayne Bay but I was too busy with cocktail hour!!
