pm203,
how do you like the swim platform?? Does it take away any of the sound from the motors in the cockpit??

I like the swim platform.It is much easier to get on and off the boat in certain situations.Also,if you want to stop and go for a swim,its a must....I think it makes the boat more user-friendly.As far as reducing noise,I have the HPI mufflers and they do a great job.Im sure the swim platform helps,but i cant tell you by how much.

Swim platform looks good on the Gladiator pm203. For what Cig charges for it , it should make it run faster and quieter as well. Almost 4,000 for the one on mine. I like the all white interior, you don't have to put towels on the seats. The colors make it hot . Beautiful boat.

Thank you for the compliment.I like all white interiors also.I had Neil add a little purple to break it up.Its mostly white with a few purple accents.I agree on the swim platforms,they are pricey,but my boat woudnt work for me without it.

I am going to the Sarasota run at the end of this week and will run it for the first time there. As long as there are no "kinks" in it, it will probably come back to Texas the week after.

Beautiful Boat!!

I think Rob has probably been as excited to get it finished as anyone. I have been working with him and TPG for awhile and am totally pleased. They have a customer first mentallity, and are definitely earning my business. Now if you can just sell my Formula Rob :drink: :drink:

Watch for the sand bars. They aren't marked. Even people with "local" knowledge were high and dry last year. Just offering a warning. :cool:

:D :D

I took my rig last year but decided not to mess with it this time. I was planning on going with some friends this year but their boats won't be ready in time. I am going to head for Lauderdale/Miami friday and run the boat a little over the weekend.

You will have a great time. I hope the boat runs excellent and you carry the Cigarette logo proud for us! Try to make a trip to Grand Lake with it this year. We are there almost every weekend. :cool:

p.s. It wouldn't be a bad idea to buy the Sarasota chip for your GPS. It is alot more detailed than the maps they will give you. You can buy it at West Marine or Boaters World. Have a blast. :drink:
