Here is a 2001 Top Gun (straight bottom) with 1000 Zul's and 6's. It was built at the same time as that Tiger. All the original owners were friends. This boat runs over 100mph easily - BOBBY BERK 954-328-2022.

Mid 90's in anything is the attraction. Trust me it makes the upkeep a little easier to swallow. NK

Only 700 hours? I wish, that was just on the dash. Only Saber takes longer to finish a boat than me :rolleyes: 5 feet under and rescheduled. I'm stuck running this friday in lake mich. 60 degrees with a balmy 54 degree water. What is the windsheild number for 60 degrees over 54 degree water going 133 without a windscreen? :eek: NK

:D Like I said ,, the guy at the Bar told me he was going a 100 when he went past us!!! :drink: :drink: Ya think maybe he was wrong?? :evilb:

Actually,,, the 3 engine Saber that is in Mich will run real good in the rough stuff but it would not hit 100 even with the short guy driving !! :D :D

Nauti Kitty,,, Would ya like to have a get together in late June with the Apache / Saber Guys down here in the Islands ?? Would sure make for some good Photo Opps.

BTW Jerry's old saber has had the motors bumped past 900 each and it's running today. I think they will see 100 now. NK

Here's a shot of you saying Boyne Thunder number 2, it's all good. What a camera ham. :D You need to watch it with suround sound, and crank it up, it will make you want to go for one more ride before the water gets hard.

Seedpass is for sale again it just sold this summer to somebody in the chicago or wisc. area? Buy the Tiger with #6's or spend lots of money on bravos every year.

That Tiger used to up here in my area. Nice boat, I think it 925's or 950's in it. It runs right around 98-100

Save your money. Swept skeg will get you nothing at 100. Only matters on cats way above that speed. Nice ride. NK

Anyone have pictures of the standard and swept skeg? so we can see the difference.
