Went down to see the boat Saturday and put together a deal with Phil this afternoon!

Since this is my first high performance boat I'll probably be on this forum quite a bit looking for advice.

Thanks again!
Greg congrats on buy. My Cousin bought his first boat from Philly almost a year ago and has enjoyed every bit of it.

That boat sold in 11 days from the date of the pictures, which was also the first time it was in the water. I'd say that puts the issue of price to rest.

ha! That's funny. You asked for an opinion and he gave it to you. Why not instead of playing games and asking questions that you already have your own opinion on and are going to start arguements and piss people off, you just say that you feel tres's rigging is just as good? Not that it even matters on a thread that's about a boat for sale that has nothing to do with tres.

Not really. It was priced to low.

Tank
My opinions are simple I think the boat was priced to high, the 9-10 year old boat brought 67% of the original Lip-Ship prize almost 10 years ago. I hope the new owner enjoys the boat and has many years of safe operation.


When I asked what makes a Lip-Ship better I got answers that ranged from better paint to he's like an AMG model MB. Nothing specific just that I don't understand. Someone finally responded that he is a better rigger than the manufacture. So I asked if he though Philly could rig better than the #1 rigger in the business JT or someone who has been doing cigarettes longer Tres.
