i will be the first to admit, i own one of the slower top guns around (72-73 mph tops)...having said that she is turn key reliable (500 EFI's) and economical to own. if i wanted a fast boat i wouldnt be in a flat bottom boat, end of story. fact is there are always faster boats out there...so to compete is pointless. we get where we need to go and look good doing it!!!

as mentioned she isnt the fastest, but with 26's she is out of the hole pretty quick and pulls hard in the mid range. all in all the perfect package for us....i can try to post pictures tonight.

the first top gun was an 86 and the owner of the first gun goes by the name "first gun" on here. it has a red and white paint scheme, similar to a 90 mph.

I know the boat, that's why it's in quotes referring to the boat.
