Anyone know who bought this Gun?

THAT'S the one I was on with Sean Stinson back in February of 2002 or so; running out of 188th Street Cigarette Factory. It was myself, Steve Schuble, and "BatGirl" here on OSO who hasn't made an appearance in ages. That was one of the best rides I've ever had; and I'll never forget it. I remember one launch that the boat went up so fast, it threw me into the back seat; with a landing like soft butter; right outside of Haulover Inlet.

"Tiger by the Tail" is a very attractive boat, I like the tan interior, white is tough to keep after. I am selling the T/G today at 3, might do something stupid with all that cash! Tank said last year that there are about 13 or 14 straight bottom Tiger's out there, I could own like 15 percent of total production!

I kept pretty good track of the tiger speeds and none of the straight hulls from my recollection went over 105, most of the 1000s and 6s that phil and richie did were right at 99,100 maybe 102.. sprsptr, your boat had a vice done with the same paint but was silver and blue. very nice boat i think it has red 6s, that wound up missing as the boat sat for a while as it was for sale. My staright bottom has been 92 and not 100% set up, i should crack 100 this year with the new upgrades.

Did you ever see my boat in Maryland? The owner I bought it from kept it racked at Lynnhaven Marina. PS My drives and tabs were red originally, changed them to black.

That boats bad azz. There's a sick photo from a helicopter of it launching off the wake of the original owners yacht in some glassy water. Cool pick.
Your tiger is very nice, congrats!
What gun do you (did you) have? Where's it going?

That would be Virginia Beach area, not Maryland; but no, I personally never saw it down there. I do remember when you bought it coming from the lower Chesapeake though. (memory, wonderful thing, when it works)
