F2 T/S Top Gun
 

WOW, what a great opportunity for someone!!! Looks like it's been dropped to a price where it should sell! Actually, I thought that it was a descent deal at 149K....but what do I know?:rolleyes: :D :D

I agree. If the boat is dry and the motors are in good shape it is a very reasonable price to get into a TS Cig.

Steve's boat is real nice

Hell of a deal on an excellent rig...

Sad sign of the resale market??

:D...:evilb:

It is an ex race boat w crazy power.:eek:
If it was a stock 500 efi it would of sold @ $150k in days.
Just my opinion:cool:

It had 500 Bulldogs and it couldn't sell for 150K. This power is recent, past year or so I bleieve. It does seem like a great deal!!

Yup :cool:

Do boats get worn out from racing? I heard that this Maxx boat only was raced a few times.

What kind of speeds do you all think with that power? I'm thinking 100?????

It just doesnt appeal to most in my opinion. Most just want to go boating, not wrenching and blowing drives every weekend. I personally need a place where I can pass out for the night.:crazy:
This boat didnt last long.

the boat was raced for a very short time, rigged and raced by tres martin

Current speeds are around 94mph, with a little more tweaking and dialing in you might see more

as far as the drives go they are bullet proof with all the modification made to them, the motors are wrench free, dyno sheets to back, turn the key and go!

and as far as the place to pass out goes, for 8500$ you can go straight to Cigarette and get a cover girl cabin, identical (only newer) than the boat above that just sold. So for 129k, plus 8500$ if you need a place to crash, its a pretty good deal

paint and cabin

I think that's the case, the market is soft, and it's spring ... . Not good. Fuel prices and high insurance costs are too much for people to deal with.

That's the sole reason it's a difficult sell. The boat is awesome but most don't want to screw with painting and having to install a cabin. I personally wouldn't mind, but most will just buy a Gladiator or a finished out Gun.

If he only took trades.......I'd be in that boat in a heartbeat!

Take that Maxx off & the paint would be ok..

Agreed, without the MAXX, the paint would be great. Unfortunately, it is integrated into the rest of the graphics on both sides and the deck. It would take a lot of work ($$) to remove it.

Personally, I really like the boat. Having owned one of the F2 T/S Guns, they really are a fun boat to operate and I wouldn't think twice about buying another. Unfortunately, to suit my picky tastes, by the time I add the paint change, updated engine hatch, new controls, updated dash & gauges, windscreen, perelli flooring, a few small vinyl upgrades and a little work in the cabin, I would have a little too much money in it. However, with all of that work completed, you would have a masterpiece. If a person could live with the boat the way it is, it is an awesome buy at that price!!

I think that the MAXX is painted on.




If only my name was Maxx:D ... I'd be on my way to buy that beeotch!:drink: :evilb:


Enough of the playing around....now for a serious question.

What is the difference between this boat and Lucky Strike besides the difference in power and drives? LS's boat runs as fast with alot less HP (200??). Is it a weight thing? setup? the bottom???

identical boats, haul wise as far as i know? Ext boxes help, and like i said, were still testing props, spacers, etc....

How much to Wetsand and take the graphics off? end up w/a white boat?

I talked to Mitcher T about repainting a Gladiator I was looking at and he told me 18-23 K to do a simple two tone. Price would be determined by how much prep and condition of existing paint.

BUILT & SET UP & RIGGED by Lip-Ship..... That says it all !

1.5 ratio.
