Simple paint scheme, solid black/white deck type deal and I want teak flooring (not seadek)........think Playboy style paint scheme. With triple 400's that boat has to be tapping the door on 95 mph! |
Wonder where the center of gravity is on a boat like that. Surely it's going to tend towards bow high any time it leaves the water.
Love the idea of outboard reliability and offshore looks |

It's all set up for the Brothers in the islands...no more taking classic boats (Apache/Cigs,etc) and pulling i/o power and slapping a bracket on the back - now the boat can come from the factory. Any issue of CG should be easily remedied.
(BTW - This AT looks more in place than the 42X Cig conversion).... Nice Job A.T! |

Ran her hard 2+ weeks in the Gulf. Just got home.
CG is addressed before you build a boat with math and computer models, its perfect. Bow to props is 38', plenty big for the rough. Thunder owners won't be surprised, that this is the first boat that I actually looked for big cruiser wake; throttle, launch, pull back, flat in air, time stands still, smooth, land, back on throttle, continue!

Are those 350's or 400's?

Put your checkbook where your mouth is. :D
Any chance he could get the boat done on a Friday (on a 3 day weekend, any bank holiday will do fine) and launch it with a full tank of gas for me? I will give him the check upon delivery, because I like to sign the checks on the glove box door.....start the boat, start the boat! Terrible video clip of a great scene (at 3:30 mark).....just imagine Pat playing "Bob from the Country Bunker" and the black and white being an AT, not a police car! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oPvhhCeH-No |
