Also I previously called this OUR SPORT, I know in this economy I am going to be in my present boat for quite a while, and having boated with Dan and his dad several times they have never made me feel inferior because I don't own an Outerlimits. remember this is OUR SPORT!
I dont know Dan, and i never said anything bad about him, nor have a problem with him... but i have read alot of his posts and i would agree while he means well, it gets taken wrong. The same way the dude Sam from Manhasset bay means well, and they both have great enthusiasm, just seem young and dont know when to keep quite... Personally, i dont think any manufacturer, esp the caliber of OL, Cig, Nortec, Fountain,etc... should have anyone on OSO, or any internet site posting about the company, raving about speeds, arguing against guys in threads that may piss on their brand.. all it does is backfire....

let us key board jockeys do that, atleast at the end of the day what we say just makes us look foolish, not an entire brand and company like OL. Lets face it, OL's technology, hulls, speeds, qaulity and accomplishments are second to none as of lately. OL's boats do all the speaking that is needed.

Cig has been around since 1969, i i dont think you will find 1 thread that has a paid employee of Cigarette bantering back anf forth on the internet

Looking at the time of the posts guess nobody works? Have owed many performance and race boats, they all have good and bad points. Each boat has its own benifits. Cig, Fountain have had same style and design since 1982 some people like that. Model years dont change much ? good for resale. I feel if you buy a performance boat ,speed would matter. I have owned 3 Ol , and I have gotten my new 43 to run good. Because you beleive in what you buy doesnt make you a cheerleader.

NOBODY on this site hates Outerlimits. Unless the company has done you wrong in the past, theres no reason to hate them.....Although it has gotten better, its the arrogant posting that gives folks a bad taste about the brand.
That's near the center of the target.

Wildman, nothing agains you at all, just posting in general

Yup. The 29 is 28' without the bustle and 30'1" with it. Same goes for the 43 that is 43'5" OAL with a hull length of 40+'. The design and flat way the hull runs means the running surface is longer than a 42 Cig.

GO OL:cheer :
