Wow!! Very classy!

Would love to know what is displayed on that large flat panel!

How have you been Kurt? I went by your place on the river on Sunday in the scarab! Blew the horn but didn't see any signs of life!!

Did you sell the top gun?

We went dirt bike riding on Sunday, too bad we missed you. Been a rather quiet summer for us, sold the Top Gun last fall and miss it badly, presently shopping Ciggies

Yeah would have been good to hook up. Will have to make a point to hook up next summer. Not sure I will make it back up there this year with the scarab!

What made you sell the TG? Are you looking to downsize?

I was told it had 871 blown 572's, Speedmaster V's on boxes. The mods were endless, the windshield retracts too.

502, Got heavily back into dirtbike riding and was not using it much last season. I'm looking hard at a few Cigs, something will pop up soon.

looks like it needs a rub rail..... i guess because the deck lines are made for one.. looks unfinished.. rest of the boat is really pretty... needs a logo on the side!

Just saw this post, thats actually my boat! Ive been meaning to post some pics of the build for... uuummm the past 2 years! just never have. lots of time and even more money was spent, The name will be "Blown Budget" and I think it fits the description well. I own my own shop and we have been designing / building for the past 2 years. All work was done in house with the exception of, the machine work on motors, and the upholstery on bolsters & custom rear seat (advanced canvas Laurie MO did seats amazing ppl!) There actually 540ci with 871. Chillers will come this winter making 1000hp, Anerson surface drives are next. The rub rail looks waaay better from a side view, all painted and no nasty plastic/stainless to break up the paint. and we did put a "modern custom" cig logo toward the middle of the boat (cant see in these pics). The flat panel was intended to display the GPS from the touch screen on the stbd side but that didnt work. Were either going to put a big garmin or get a touch screen that will display the gps on the monitor. So as of now its only good for a camera view or a movie. The boat came from florida and was white with purple/yellow tear away design paint scheme. Ill work on pics soon! Kinda cool to see it on here, Thanks for the comments!! Mike
