I would love to see what it used to be, I know it came from New York, there's people that say it went under at a dock years ago, no proof yet nor do I really care, boat is great and will be better as I fix things up it needs!

I watched that boat dry indoors with fans and drip methods for months the summer of 2006 at Congels. The sunken power was scrapped and it was converted to 502 mpis mated to the stock trs drives. It was cleaned and ready to go and was sold by Chris Martin from the Boat House in Constantia NY in the spring of 2007.

what do you mean
Baronmarine on here cut the cabin all out of his Topgun and glassed in some frames. Bow sits about 10 inches higher at rest now and the boat doesn't rattle like it was starting to do after a few years of him beating his Gun like it owed him money. Saw 96 this summer in it with 900s and #3As but it is propped for rough water acceleration and not topspeed, He doesn't like to go out unless it is 3-4s minimum. |

That was before it was painted correct?
I remember the guys in the service department saying they were trying to avoid drilling relief holes in the boat and that's why it was drying inside. Had fans in the cabin but when I saw it the boat was completely assembled |

no, I saw it drying with that paint. However I don't know if Mike was the one that had it painted maybe before it was completely dry.
