It's got a door (actual door not a flap) at the bulkhead where the bed usually would be. Then inside it has a bathroom with high counters and mirrors like a real bathroom. I thought at one point it had a Flushable toilet up there but looks looks like it was swapped for a porta-potty. Actually a really cool set up. Phil (Lipship) did a few newer guns this way over the last few years. Is rather have a roomy changing area and possible toilet for the girls over a bed that I never slept on the entire time I owned my gun.

These $100k T/S boats are not the deal that people think they are. Now if you get the right deal on the right boat freshen motors add Whipples and Imco's now you are talking! But I do like this boat and there is a lot of it for $80k
I believe that Tiger that was listed for $105k had very low hours but your point is taken. A good deal on paper doesn't always translate to the real world.

Your Tiger is another league, especially now with the SCX drives, spotless paint, rebuilt power, new exhaust, etc.
