had a 95 gun with 525SC’s and 3A’s from 05 - 2013. Then babies happened and we sold it. Then kids old enough to fall off boat at speed with our dying so bought the cafe as a kids boat. It was a bit beat up but I was fine because it was a family beater. Theeeeeen realized I can’t have a boat like that and went down the restore / refresh rabbit hole. Now kids are older and want a rooster tail and do 100. Lol

I always wanted a Tiger but we’re gonna buy a house in havasu with an RV garage and I don’t want to buy the house based around the size of the boat. Plus I’d need a dually realistically. So we’ll get another gun and we’ll see what Happens. Told the wife, let me get this sh*t out if my system. If it’s more trouble than worth we’ll sell it and buy a TS.

if a #6 straight bottom gun doesn’t happen a zul / Lipship TS would be a close second.

lanier tomorrow. Money wired today. Gotta say, it was a fantastic boat. Never once left me stranded and only once when I very first got it and hadn’t had it serviced yet one motor had a bad sensor and went into limp mode on and off. Other than that, great boat. Get in it and pin it all day. Was a lot of fun having my son in law update it over last few
years so thanks to Barrett Custom Marine. Lost a little money after pouring money into it but I always expect to lose on a boat and it wasn’t too much.

on to the next cigarette! Shopping has begun.

Congrats, man! Can't wait to see what's next!

if the wife had her way we’d be looking for one. Most likely, someday will end up with one. I need that loud through hull
exhaust and sexy offshore stance though. 😁

Funny is I didn’t care if I sold it so no biggie and now, trying to figure out what will work and what’s out there is actually more stressful than the selling part lol.

You’re in the circle and know all of the right people. Be patient. You’ll find that perfect boat. I have faith in you.

I did the Sea Ray thing for 3 years and it was OK but it did nothing for me running the boat with the exception of one day running it by myself in 2-3 WOT..... I was trying to launch a 10k pig at 34 knots....

That one sold about 5 or 6 years ago at Performance Boat Center and at the time i believe it was around 250hrs and sold for pretty much the same price. I called Glen about it back then and he said it needed quite a bit of paint touch up at the time along with some interior work. I zoomed in on the recent pics and it has got some pretty good size areas in the paint that need attention for sure.
