Always with the excuses...so tell me why are they so hard to drive?

Agreed. The paint does look nice but it just had to be on Triple X!! RIP Triple X.

Oh well. Not the first boat to lose its identity and certainly not the last.

The paint job looks very nice and fresh. I would sneak XXX on there somewhere too.

Guys, Guys, Guys,

The boat is NOT done yet so be patient. I guarantee you will not be disappointed and the boat will be incredible when done. Why did we paint? The boat was painted because it needed it. Interesting that people feel it lost it's identity when just about everyone we talked to told us the reason it didn't sell was because it said XXX and really needed to be painted and needed a new identity. 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.

Not withstanding the boats history having XXX on it would limit the number of buyers interested.

I would also sneak a small XXX into the design.
