the kit in my avitar with hardware and Zildjian or Paiste or Sabian high end cymbals would probably sell at a dealer somewhere around $7-9k. It had a lot of products on it.
take care, Mike

Re: Center Console or Go Fast?
I just purchased a 2000 42' fountain Lightning from Michigan and trailered it down to Sarasota, Fl. with (57) Fresh water hours and not a scratch on it. My friend has a new 36 concept with verados which I like, but now he wants mine! Center Consoles here are for fishers. I buy my fish at Publix!

That's what I have been trying to tell these fools
(just kidding for all you sensitive types out there) But looking at the poll I think Steve might have to change the site to centerconsolesonly.com

Dual purpose, just as fast, just really no over nighting, and how many people really over night. 80 mph in a 43', twin diesel with awesome mileage, in a super big and comfortable wave crusher of a ride. When I retire I would like a 80 Nortech to cruise and sleep on as one of my residencies, a 43 or by then a 39 CC and a 36 cat, that would resolve all my problems and keep everyone happy in our family .

Re: Center Console or Go Fast?
This is a tough call. I currently have a 42 Sonic with tripp 500s, but I have been toying with the CC idea for over a year. I know just as soon as I buy one I'm going to miss the rush. But I'm sure tired of working on this thing, and trying to cram 8 to 10 people in a cockpit built for 5.
