Told a buddy about this boat. However, without the power in it I don't think it will sell. With 502's it'll be a dog. Just rethink the price and I think with the whole package price it would sell.

Its one of those catch 22's that most people find themselves in after redoing a boat.(boat being worth less than each line item spent redoing it)..that is with all the up grades from paint to the interior to the hull to the drives to the motors...that being said I would cut it lose with the motors but its one of those things where the price needs to be presented to me because like all of us have seen on OSO..everyone is going to under cut the price significantly (hell I'm guilty myself) so when you take that into consideration and post a price (knowing it will be shopped) then you're the A$$ for having an inflated price....it sucks but it is what it is!

The way I look at it all Top Guns are the same until the step came out! That is knowing that the bravo's are better than the TRS so even though mine is a 1990..with all the work done I'd price it right up to a 1999 straight bottow any day of the week...but if anyone would like to explain why i shouldn't I'm all ears!

I guess thats my .02

BraceYourself....did you ever look into those LED lights that I put on the back of my boat???

Yep, my engines are getting refreshed and I plan on installing the LED's. My friend is in the market and realizes the value of a boat like yours. You did it right with the 1450's, konrads, etc... I think you have a great package for someone, and priced right.

well u probably have the old style cabin... also layup schedule changed through out the years....so did the engine hatch...

all small stuff...

that being said it looks like a PRIMO resto... real nice

the right buyer that just falls in love with it will pay a premium im sure.. but with T/S guns aproaching 110k.... i think 100k w/ power... which is like a 99TG


but what do i know

Good to hear....I'm sorry but those lights look bada$$ when you're running!!! You'll Love it....and if you look at the one i've got those are the 3' long LED....they came out with bigger ones since (just as an FYI)

If you buddy is interested in mine and if you want to have him call me and we'll see if he's in the ballpark for what I need here's my number 312-933-3298

Regardless need to get you and your rig up here for the chicago poker run....or hell swing up for a weekend....there is about 6-10+ boats that hang up on lake michigan...it a a good time
