By the looks of that guys boat(whoever made that website).......... I wouldn't step foot on one if it was on the trailer!!

LOL...kinda thinking the same thing.

about 90 miles from Richmond to Norfolk

The Gentry Eagle ran 80 most in normal seas. They ran Miami Nassau and Miami New York faster than any class one or superboat offshore. They never did Bermuda.

Mine is built like a brick shet house('99) and went through Katrina. The only stress cracks on it are from when the t-top was ripped off from the storm before I got it. They must have some one else laying up their boats for a while or using some 'new' junk resin, because that one was a horrible job. They have always overly helpful when I called for parts and whatever and sold me stuff for less than it probably cost to make. I'm a contender fan so good luck guys.
