I've been away for a while and I guess quality has suffered. I'll make it right!

Helps to go through a dealer that actually see's the boats progress throughout the build, or has the wear and tear issues resolved after taking a used boat on trade. This should happen loooong before the customer see's the boat much less owns it.

My 92 Gun came looking and running like absolute chit from the dealer when I had it, however my 02 looked and ran boat show perfect when delivered. Both boats were bought used, and within 1-2 years of being new, and from different dealers.

Mine is a 2002 and I have been very impressed with Cig's fit & finish.
Mine was built in the old factory, you would think the new factory would be more likely to turn out better product than the old place.

We raced a extended cover girl 02 w/ 575's and the pillows didn't hardly move. Those boats are a piece of work!

Jeff, by your own admissions you have said that you are a pretty anal guy. I mean this with no disrespect but can anyone live up to your expectations? Even when buying a new car, we look for things wrong, the employees making them are doing a job, wether it be high or low production, they wont put the care and the extra degree that you would. In my Tiger I see things I would have done differently, but I do understand why it is done that way, my way would take more time, manufacturers are on a schedule.... and for those of you that made comments with no knowledge about him...I say this, Mark, shut up, you really dont need to comment on everything...
