You guys know I couldn't stay away forever now could I? 
It's on its way to this side of the country as we speak. Should be here early next week. I always said only one boat would bring me back ... a stepped Tiger. Also, the opportunity had to "right" in other ways.

Dave - As for the money flying out of my bank account ... there is none left to fly out so it's irrelevant!
Tom - Thanks! Look forward to running with the group again!

Jeff, that boat is from Santa Barbara. The owner (s) have a few Cigarettes and a SICK yacht (100 footer!). Nice people. He actually told me he liked the straight bottom Cigs compaired to the stepped boats and thats why he was selling...Old school offshore powerboaters

I don't think they were SCOPE material anyway from what I hear.I heard they have a captain that basically takes care of all their boats. Obviously a very wealthy family. They have the boat towed around the country to various events. You are also correct - they did buy two straight bottom Tigers. According to their captain the twin step has never gone over 70mph! He even said he doesn't think the engines were ever red-lined once! Anyway, they are the original owners.
As for Havazoo ... I was all pumped about it and then realized that I have an out of town wedding to attend that weekend.
