Looking for a full cover
For a Flatdeck. Since theres no listing for a flatdeck if I need to order one will a TG cover fit?
thank you. |
Rumor has it your joining the club. Congrats looks like a nice piece. Mark
|
Thanx Mark, I hope all goes thru, waiting on survey.
|
So any feed back on this? I can get a custom cover made for $1500 or are the $600 "semi custom " good enough??
During the summer it will be outside under a roof.. I never trailer with anything else but a cockpit cover If all goes well its looking like I`ll be "smoking" this friday :evilb: http://33outlaw.zenfolio.com/img/s4/...01462780-4.jpg |
NICE!!! Look at that badazz thing shine! More pictures? Power? Spill the beans! Good luck!

Here ya go Sam...http://www.grandsportcenter.com/12po..._flat_deck.htm
Welcome to the RED boat club, Dan! Lol. I wouldn't even put my Fountain out on the lift until I bought a full cover for it. Cost me about $1200 seven years ago, so $1500 is right in line, I would say. Honestly...its worth it...its just a huge PITA to cover and uncover the thing...cover must weigh 80 lbs and is quite unwieldy... |
Thanx Mike! Yes i`m really exited,survey was flawless , picking it tomorrow.
May favorite part is never having to worry about Bravo upper gears again !! :woohoo::woohoo: http://33outlaw.zenfolio.com/img/s2/...01462302-4.jpg http://33outlaw.zenfolio.com/img/s1/...01462238-4.jpg http://33outlaw.zenfolio.com/img/s4/...04557846-4.jpg |

It was a great time!!!!!!! Glad to see everyone again. Thanks Dan for a end of year ride. Congratulations on a sick ride!!!!!!
|
We all had a blast today!!! I got a bunch of pics and video... a lot of GoPro on a stick... definetly a different perspective...
|
Man I sure had a different experience today.. oil pressure gauge going to 0,(thank God it turned out to be electrical) murder scene in the bilge with oil, (leak not sure where its coming from) couldn`t go over 4K cause the water pressure was at 25psi and climbing, takes a year to get on plane..(that may be just me not being used to a surface drive thou)
Man I really should have insisted on sea trial, what the heck was I thinkin!? :( She does look awesome thou lol |
Awesome day on the water to end the year...and congrats on the new ride again. That thing looks and sounds absolutely awesome! Michelle got a bunch of good pictures. Too bad the water was so flat running south!

that was a tease.... we need more!!

Im sure its a dramatic difference from the 33 baja with EFI and bravos. This thing is setup to run. X dimension very agressive. Its got a few bugs to work out, but thats the nature of the beast. Motors are new, don't have but a few hours on them. In about a 30 mile run the leaker lost about maybe 1/2 quart of oil. Of course 1/2 qt looks like a bomb when it mixes in with a little water and sloshes around . Looks to be a timing cover leak or pan gasket.
I felt very good about the engines having zero blowby or steam/smoke from breathers. Once we put my mech oil psi gauge on to verify, dash gauge showed 25lbs at idle, mech 80psi. Phew. I feel real good about the engines in the boat. Properly maintained, they should easily go a couple hundred hours without needing anything. They're not radical. In the end I think it will need 2" spacers possibly to help make it more user friendly. We did have 1000+ lbs of men in the boat and a hefty load of fuel. So we probably witnessed the worst possible planing scenerio the boat should encounter. On a positive note, the engines start, run, and idle without a hiccup. No stalling, loading up, hesitating, or anything. Drivetrain is smooth and solid. No vibrations. Up on plane, she carrys well, and runs true, with none of the typical flatdeck listing to one side. Water psi is high, and that will be taken care of. From my perspective, it was a positive first run. However, I have had "new to me" boats in the past, smoke a tranny on the first run, and find out I truly had no oil psi on a freshly built 540 and in need of full overhaul, new engines splitting a cylinder wall in the first mile, and so on. So in my eyes, not putting a rod thru the side of the block or filling the crankcase with water is a sunny day!!! But of course my view probably isnt normal, and I've really never owned a true turn key stock family boat. Sorry about the video angle, and the ship captain behind me.

dan,i just want to say,your cig is a newly built boat,and some minor problems are to be expected,i met kirk[the boats owner] and his brother kris a few weeks ago and they are top notch guys,kris built the engines and he knows what he is doing,so i dont think there is any need to worry about the engines.as far as the oil leak,i know it might be a little upsetting when you just got the boat,but if you get it over to my shop,you, joe g,and myself will have the engine out in a couple hrs,il find&fix the leak,we will put it on my run stand and run it for 30 minutes,then back in the boat it goes.and if you get some drive extensions,we will get them on in no time flat,if you would like,il even let you wear my rose colored glasses,lol.after the minor bugs get worked out,your gonna love that boat.that is one beautyful cig.

Mike, I would love if you could help me out with pulling the motor your facility is something awesome and would make it soo much easier than me trying to do it in my garage.
There didn`t seem to be any expense spared when building this boat thats for sure...everything is top notch. I just didn`t expect to be pulling a motor one week after buying a boat which was supposed to be ready to go hence the reason I did not insist on sea trial. I`m going see If I can figure out where that oil is coming from maybe I`ll get lucky and won`t have to pull the motor. Would you be free possibly this weekend if it is the pan gasket? One side note: I do have to say though Mark @ Grand Sports Center has been absolutely AMAZING to work with, went above and beyond! ...even offered to send one of his guys to help me locate the leak and I`m an hour away one way! Hes also going to let me use his boat jacks and one of his guys to help me get the boat off the trailer so I can work on it this winter...Can`t say enough there. She does look great on the water thou: Video: http://33outlaw.zenfolio.com/p193288065/e4851b73c http://33outlaw.zenfolio.com/img/s4/...16820338-4.jpg I~m sure once the bugs are worked out I~m going to love this boat <knock on wood> |
