Boat looks bad a$$! A small emblem ghost painted on each side of the the back of the boat right above the rub rail (or where the rub rail would normally be) with the "XXX" emblem would be a nice touch to pay homage to its roots. Of course I would only add that if the new owner wanted it that way.

Nonetheless, very cool boat. This boat is coming out very nice and will be ready in 2-3 weeks with new 1150EFI's, SSM6, Huber Trans, CMI exhaust ALL new interior and new gas tanks. We also stripped the trailer and it will be painted and gone thru with new tires installed. I will have more pics on 10/4 after boat is buffed out. We did switch the exhaust to come out transom and not thru engine hatch to allow consumer different options with noise reduction.

Stay tuned.

And for the record, I agree the XXX boat looks amazing with the new paint. F*ckin' awesome job!
You mean the Skater kilo boat!! No offense but that boat is not a Cigarette hence my comment Tank. And Triple X was a pleasure boat people forget that too.

Triple X is a pleasure boat? Maybe it can pass for one, but lets be real about it.
