Should be a blast to run in some rough water.

I was looking at twin steps. Was VERY close to buying the one Bobby had with Zul’s but I kept going back to the fact I’ve always wanted a #6 cigarette. Only a few TS guns with 6’a and while there is / was the purple one for sale and it’s pretty bad ass, my family really enjoys the full cabin of the straight bottom guns. Plus RWD had a recent 350k refit, low hours super clean agreeable price. Done and done. I’m also on a particularly good position to own a “high maintenance” big powered boat with my son in law being one of the best in the industry. So, it came together. Should be fun.




thanks for all the well wishes everyone. Lots of pics and videos to come I’m sure. I’ll keep this thread alive. 😁👍

Congrats! Good boat, well done.

Nice Tank and yes those old guns (and 35 cafes) have about the best cabin in a go fast.

I would take a 6 over a TS bravo boat any day.

Thanks guys.

gotta thank the guys over at central power and rigging for doing a thorough pre inspection. Since they’re the ones that did all the updating work, they’d be the best to go through it and ensure it’s still tip top. Also gotta thank buddy Rob aka lake p.a.l. For picking up the boat and storing it until it c in snout west in a few weeks. He’s also dragging it out. 😁👍

and of course, thanks to Ed Again for putting it all together and dragging the boat over to CLR, meeting Rob later etc all while dodging a blizzard. Lol

PICS Shined up ready to go. Picked up at CPR and in storage now out of the cold.
