Very cool --- I've never seen one of these (39's).

What (original) year model is it?

It's a 39 squadron from 81. It is structually flawless. It is titled as a cigarette and was sold by don arronow when he bought cigarette back. It is set up to run mid 80's relliably but I want to go faster. The money it would take to change things is better spent on a different configuration. The boat is the perfect setup for someone that wants a wave crushing ride. If you've never rode on an older hull like this or an apache it is impressive. Also has a lot of creature comforts.

Joe's ridden in an older hull....MINE! Unfortunately it wasn't in water that he could really get a feeling for.

Nice 39 by the way. Very clean.

If there are no deals that come a long then I will start the process of upgrading drives, trannies, and increasing hp. Gill had a good point in that it is a mid 80mph wave crusher. Not the 100mph I'm trying to make it. But I do love the boat. I just need more speed. The only reason I would change things is to maintain relliability with more hp.
