Hows yours running? Race hatches look great.

It ran great. I was lucky enough to find the hatches 30 miles from home. I think they make the boat.

I am gonna pull my boat for the winter, I need some work done on the starboard outdrive and maybe I will find some Race Hatches and replace my sunpad.....also thinking about changing my white deck back to original teal or possibly grey.

Its 35 degrees here in Texas this AM.....

...and yes I am an passionate 38KV owner!

Anyone out there have some KV Hatches they want to part with? HINT HINT SNEAK ATTACK!

KV is longer with a great classic look..
Cig is a tad shorter but man they have a look sitting in the water also...

I woulkd be torn to what is the cleaner boat at a better price.... or which has bigger power!!!!

I kinda like the raised center on the Scarab. But then I love the raised center on my 28 cig. I think that is part of what makes that boat.

Right, in reality both are great choices.. It is hard to find the KV with seperate bolsters though...the twin bolster is cool if you have your girl, but if you have bud with ya... not so cool... LOL

28 cigarettiss,....do you run CC in either of your boat's power? ...looking for what might be best when running in salt water....I've heard where just a good flush is all you really need....what's your take?

Actually all KVs have separate bolsters. When the 377 was given the KV designation, the padding was eliminated from the gun whale and the bolsters were split up
