Revolution...
 

I have never seen any reference to this model. Aside of the deck design what is wrong with this model?

My understanding is that they were very deck heavy and had a tendency to porpoise. Twin engines were slugs and trips were a nightmare to maintain back in the day. You have to remember big HP and reliability were two words that didn't exist back then.
Fast forward to the 42 tiger with a smooth deck, re designed bottom and the boat got good. Add steps and the 42x is an awesome piece.

Biggest problem is that they look weird. It would be cool to put a flat deck on one. Maybe too much money to be worth it. But they are cheaper to buy than most other cigs.

ive always wanted to get a customer who was up for a project. Cut the humps off and put a topgun cap off it. Would be cool. Be like a evolution not a revolution. I love the cabins

Most of them were originally sold overseas. A few were redone. But yeah, you need to be a special person to want one. A modified deck would be cool, but you could find a tiger and be way ahead in money in the long run. Been some good deals on Tigers lately

I always thought a realistic, pos cheaper "fix" to it's aesthetics would be to put 1/4 canopies on one. But now those are even dated so....... I wouldn't even want to know what it would cost to cut the deck and put in a regular fairing. Ugh.

I have alway been a fan of the Revolution. The design was very Euro trendy at the time. I was fortunate enough to ride in the "Pink" CP race boat back in the day with Craig and Bud. With the triple Hawk's it would literally throw you into the bolster when accelerating from 70-100. It would easily run 115+ with throttle to spare. But very scareyat those speeds.

The original boats did have some bottom troubles due to the long engine room to fit the triples. Most of them were brought back to the factory for repair adding chicken feet between the stringers. Materials weren't as available as they are today which made the deck very heavy. You had to run alot of trim to get them to carry the nose which made them porpoise at lower speeds.

The Evolution was the next generation with a stretched Top Gun deck. Much better balanced boat. Which led to the Tiger as stated by Tom A.
