The 37 is a great boat for the money. Will run with the best of them in the rough stuff

The fact they don't build them tells you nothing. The 37 was the first boat built by mike. WIth mike being on the cutting edge devolped new bottoms and diffrent models and still does it with the new 46 and next up the cat and ??????

I am pretty sure they will build the 37 if you request one.

Mike said the boat was tested at the factory at 117, but we never saw that. If you are referring to the OL Shogren has, this is the same boat I am talking about. Its an awesome boat, and attracts a lot of attention so be ready for that. For the money he is asking, it would be hard to find a better deal.

Maybe it was the operator. I owned a 37 with Bravos on boxes and 750hp per side that I put about 400 hours on it. Absolutely loved the boat so I bought another 37 with #6s and 1050hp per side that I have logged about 120 hours on. You will be hard pressed to find another 37 that will run with this boat in the rough stuff. I am certain that it will be a huge step up from your BAJA.

It,s not cost effective to do a smaller boat. Thats why Mike dropped the 37 GTX.

I guess thats possible, but never had a problem with any other setup. I am almost positive with the correct setup the boat would have been different. Of course you can bury the tabs and the boat will not get out of shape, of course when you do that the boat also slows down. How fast did yours with 1050's run?? What props and gear ratio?

Single step on both boats. Test drove a 33 Power Play about 10 years ago that had the props rotating in, it was the most unstable boat I have ever been in. I got out of it and decided to buy another 32 Active Thunder.
