Sure looking good though.

The boat will be balanced slightly different, engines were moved forward, X dimension modified...hoping the formula works. If not, we'll replace with NXT's.

BTW - your 39 was our motivation. Loved your boat, totally impressed with performance at the Shootout.

Thx

Incredible 39U! :cool: Looks fantastic and we're just looking at paint and some rigging in the your fave and 'most important' room! LOL :D Can't wait for the end results!!

Hope the tweaks and adjustments that were made hit the sweetest of sweet spots!

It will probably have the 700SCI transmission with the NXT transom assy and a number 6 drive.

Then what would be the point of going to sixes? The weak link in the NXT is the tranny, the drives are fine...the NXT is basically a six with a single vs dual shaft. I know the six lowers work better on some boats (beaks) due to the lift but not an issue on the Cigs...so???

Yep, basically a bravo derivative as I understand it.
