That is fantastic!
Makes an amazing boat even better.

Give us the dirt.

They seem to have great torque, midrange, & top end to them for sure. Coming out of a boat with 1000+hp a side, it's hard to compare the new engines to anything I've had recently, but so far I'm happy with how they've ran.

The electronic throttles are what's REALLY nice. They don't even feel like they're hooked up to anything with how smooth they shift.

You could actually tell the difference between the new generation throttle/shifters and the old. It's like a constant reminder of how much technology is at your fingertips!

Can't wait to see your new rig in person man!

Cigarette custom built & painted it for me, since they are only using the billet ones on their new boats now days.

LipShip could help you get a black one I'm sure, if you give them a shout.
