He actually broke just outside Biscayne on the run down to the keys. We circled around to make sure he was alright and he said they were working on an issue and were ok. But the boat never made it to key west.

The final conclusion is it's a gun. There's something different about the dash/fairing. I think it's a gun but it's got a modified dash that makes it stand out a little.

Did you see Ruckus is for sale? Little steep but that boat was always a favorite. Built by Jeff Cheng (creator of OSO) then bought by Anna (blonde cig chick) and then resold to a guy in Chicago who is selling I believe.
Running with the devils on LOTO. don't know of it's for sale.
There was only about 13 #6 straight guns. Only like 5 TS #6 guns.
Straights:
Bill Proctor's Spider Boat
Ruckus
Runnin' with the Devil
Primal Instinct
Superman Boat
Come Fly With Me (destroyed)
Nasty Habit (OSO Cignificant Other)
2000 Cig was converted to a 525/bravo boat
Old School II
Kangaroo rat
Purple green 6 man
94 with 700 Donovan's
90mph painted boat with 1000 Carolina's

That thing must have sounded incredible with those giant N/A's!!! Old School II had a great rumble to it with N/A 750's at 582cu.....currently at Dave's (Wesco) getting rebuilt with his magic touches....stay tuned...

The six drive is the only way to go on the 39. We built a new 39 in 2011 and according to Bud at Cigarette we were the first new build with the 700/ six drive set up. He said it was the best handling 700/39 boat ever built. Think it became the norm after that.

I would nearly wet myself every time I was next to or road on "out of control" 38 TS Cig that has NA Zuls in it. Was owned by Kevin Schulte in ca for many years, then went out east and then came back, purchased by another buddy. That snappy crackling of big HP N/A is just bad azz.

Matt, your boat does sound bad azz! The day we started it in the back of Ocean Performance I think was the nail in the coffin for you! LOL... Those Stainless Marine gen III manifolds sound great for not being a full big tube header. Can you post the vid of it running that day????
