now, now, John knows I love the paint on his, no one has ever heard me comment in any way but to pour praise over the exceptional job he has done.....

Sorry if I have confused you with someone else. Had thought for sure you had commented that you liked it but just weren't in love with it. And for sure I know that its not for everyone, like any other graphic paint job. I know I love it, and I always get comments and questions about it at docks, especially everyone wants to know "what year is it?" They are amazed when they hear that it is an 88.

Tell me, what kind of top speed do you get from the Top Gun? And at what RPM ? Thanks, Jeff

I've never had the boat to top speed yet. Besides the checkout ride when I bought it I've only had it out one time and wasn't familiar enough yet to try her out. The previous owner claimed 85MPH, which is probably about right for a Kevlar boat with this power.

Are the mufflers required at Loto ?

That Top Gun just needs to be priced right.

IMO...it already is

Thanks Craig!!!!!!!!!!!

Baron, just what do you feel is the right price??????

Does anyone remember that 1990 Top Gun that Midwest Powerboats re-did? We looked at that boat before the re-do probably 3 years ago and that could have been bought for $57k. It had 750 Lingenfelter's and #3's.....

Has anyone seen the '94 TG resto that's for sale in the classifieds right now? It's priced at 119,500 but that rig is absolutely pristine with all work being done by Phil. Is it high for a '94, yes. Is it high for a '94 with brand new 500 EFI's, Bravos, Hunter paint, interior etc, etc - NO! All in what you're looking for. And, as someone stated earlier, do a resto yourself and see what kind of peso you have to put into it to get a quality product. I did a partial resto on my 89 Formula 311 (engines, drives, interior) and I can tell you, I didn't even come close to getting all of my money back although it did bring more than other 89 311's at the time and the buyer got a solid, clean boat.

Just my .02
