Default Did Shogren repaint 47 OL XXX?

That will be a lot of boat for the money when done! If it was XXX it was a shame they repainted it! That boat took Reggie's pride for awhile......The interior needed a refresh and there was no power/drives so this looks like it.

Didn't a previous owner own both Triple x and a 39 GTX with Vipers that he couldn't wait to sell for some reason?

Yes he owned both. He traded Triple X for a Nor-Tech cat. Triple X still ran faster than any Cigarette in existance! Hell, that 39GTX almost does!!!

Yes, I am sure it did. I think Customryder looked at the 39 GTX and was not impressed. Something about the quality. I guess you just can't have it all.

The person driving the boat didnt know how to run the boat. It would have been much different if Mike was running the boat. If I remember correctly he wasnt too impressed with the Cig he bought!

Correct. Something to do with bad glue in the headliner. With the Ol, it was the whole boat. (just kidding of course).

I think its much nicer as well, but its a shame to lose the original triple X. That was a special boat at the time and a cool name.
