I got to disagree, it's all in the equipment the boat is rigged with and proper maintenance. Don't know the above boat but I do know my 1989 Top Gun is probably the most reliable performance boat on my lake. Three seasons (300+ hrs) of nothing but oil changes and general maintenance. I'd much rather have an older clean Speedmaster 'Gun than a Bravo 'Gun.

just my .02

Without a doubt...

that older 38 is a freshly rigged mel riggs boat. doesn't get much better.
but old school my not be what mobones wants.

Too Old

I like 'em all, but Speedmasters=reliability.
