nice 'ol rig. I see the skegs have been cut. It's been said that is good for a few mph without any real handling issues as deep as they use to run them. Pretty cool boat bet it rides great in the ruff stuff.

long story short,i sold my top gun and was going to take a break for a year or two,my friend told me he knows where thier is a old cigarette for sale ,but the color of it is yellow.Well i said ok ill take a look.He said the only problem is it has been in the garage for 15 yrs,ok lets look at ,i get to the garage the guy opens it ,i put on my poker face and said its ok lets talk .The rest is history.It took me hours to get it out of the garage 6 flat tires and 15 yrs of junk around it.
