Was talking to a forum member and we both couldn't figure something out. We both noticed there is a differance between early and late straight bottom guns. Why do the later 90's top decks extend further back than the earlier guns? It seams there is a big difference. Early's extend~1.5" while late 90's are ~3"....... This has been bothering me for 6 months... What's the deal?

hmm lets see some pics

Yeah - whatcha talking bout willis

Wha???

now you got me looking at boats in the classifieds

They had two different hull molds, my 393 has the short transom hangover, Picketts, "Lock & Load " staggered (one of the Five) 293 has the long hangover. Both are 93 boats. Both Top Guns. Made a year apart. We wondered about that before and asked Bud Lorrow.

Okay I still confused as to what exactly I should be looking for ?

this is the transom of a 1993 [ATTACH=CONFIG]511640[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]511641[/ATTACH]

what part should we be looking at?? or are you talking about the depth of the notch in the hull??

I believe they are talking about the area on the transom where the deck meets the hull at the rub rail.

Holy crap. I've never noticed that! Weird man. And there's definately a difference.
