Looks a little waterlogged...but doesn't seem like a bad deal. There would be a lot of cosmetic repairs, check out the picture of the control panel.

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

Looks like it flipped and sunk. I never even heard of the accident. I saw that boat for sale on the Fastboats.com website for a long time. I think it will be a bunch of cash to make it nice again........

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

Your right Brent.

Could it be the one that flipped in the Carolinas or Virginia last year and killed the new owner?

No hull damage, just the engine hatch ripped off and the boat tweaked hard enough to snap the seat base in two... :rolleyes:

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

that boat sank right here in good ole new yawk...from what i heard a guy with a big checkbook and no step bottom boat driving experience bought it and barrel rolled it on the first or second time he used it....the accident happened like 2 and a half months ago...supposedly there were a few substantial injuries...that boat has to run in the mid to high 90s with that setup..i havent heard anything lately but i am sure the boat is a mess by now since its been sittin soo long...

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

called up,,the boat sold allready :mad:

I have a 2003 steel Myco for sale

209K comes with a free 2001 Top Gun :evilb: :D :drink:

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

I think boardmember NYKAMP may have a twin step trailer (steel) for sale.

Looks like someone got caught with a quoted post before complete deletion of there posts...

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

whoops, the secret is out. Did you see it in person before the purchase?

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

At that price I would buy it sight unseen also..... you cound sink $40k and still be in it right.

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

When you buy a boat like that, does it get a salvage title, or someother notation that it was a total loss?

Actually it probably doesn't which sort of sux. Not trying to rain on someone's profit parade, but a friend bought a boat that had sunk / "supposed" restored, but that wasn't disclosed during the purchase. He found out after a bunch of electrical screwups and other strange failures because the boat hadn't been completely gutted to the bare hull and done over.

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

I was thinking the same thing. Be a good winter project, but you'd be money ahead in the long run on a twin step Gun. :drink: :evilb: :D

Canadian registration.

Lots of work there.

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

Canadian registration is from the previous owner of the boat...

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

Take quite a bit more than $40k for the boat to be right.
Project like this could bite you in the azz.
Regards

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

Your right. It was for sale for quite a while.

The title is clean. We spoke to the documentation company. today when my partner gave them the check. My partner is going to fly to look at the boat tomorrow. We had someone at the boat this afternoon. There is no structural damage. Other then the hatch missingvery limited damage, no cracks or stress cracks anywhere. The gimbals which are the first to go in a bad roll over are perfect so it couldn't have been too violent of an accident . We spoke to the guys that pickeled the motors and drives and the motors ran before they were pickeled. The interior is supposed to be near perfect, just dirty. I'm sure it's going to have to be completely rewired. It comes with a brand new Myco trailer. Nobody was hurt in the accident and there were no lawsuites or issues. The swim platform was bent while trying to lift the boat out of the water. The only thing I regret about the whole deal it "It's a V bottom"!!

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

since it is a V bottom.............i will help a fellow OSO brother out.............$80,500.00 Firm :D :D

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

what coould have caused it to just roll over like that? ive seen a lot of rolled boats in the last year or so and this cig is the only one that wasn't all broken up. lot to be said for cigs construction!

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

They said it was a 60 MPH roll over. I don't see how that is possible. I don't think I could flip my boat at 60 if I wanted to.

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

Ahh.... a new cig owner.........

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

Here are some other pics.

LubeJobs, are you going to fix it up and use it? I bet the insurance would be cheaper than your cat :D

Gino,just drive it fast STRAIGHT!!!!! :evilb: :evilb:

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

If a non flipped 02 Topgun is worth 220 ish,what do you think retail on this boat would be?170 ish?

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

Thank you for the pictures. Looks like it was a nice boat. I'm not going to keep it. My partner put the money up to buy it, so we could fix it and resell it. I'm sure when it all over I will probably end up loosing money like I do in every boat deal!

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

I'll never buy a fix-er upper again or a boat sight unseen and test drive un driven :rolleyes:

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

The wise man speaketh....if I bought used it gets a good going over...inside and out..test run ...buyer says no...no means GO! :D

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

Good for you Lube Jobs!! I think that thing has a ton of potential!! Would be a fun winter project!!!

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

I'll give you $81K for it right now. :D :D :D

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

Meticoulsly maintained, adult driven only, ....etc

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

Only driven to church on Sundays ......

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

As this does seem to be a decent deal on the outside, keep in mind that when a heavy boat like this flips over at speed it stresses all the supports,shatters and weakens the fiberglass where you can't see it .Hull's are not designed to support shock and weight in that direction.
You will loose at least 5 mph ever time and will also need a professional to completely re- work the hull.
Call Tres Martin and ask him what his Gladiator needed after a 50mph roll over. Good Luck!

What is the pickeling process? How do they pickel the engines??

Re: 2002 Top Gun on Ebay ouch!!!!!!!
 

They put pastrami and corned beef in it. :evilb:
