Ghost Rider ....just changed the way we thought of offshore race boats.

The Cigarette....gave us the general specs of offshore race boats of the future. Deep Vee, over 30 feet, twin sterndrive engines, staggered, Speedmasters, three man crew.

Warpath....This boat kept the deep vees alive, long into the era of the cats.

BENIHANA....This boat set the beam of 8 feet for many years to follow on competitive race boats.

Top Banana...... The story of a kid's dream.... of someday be able to race with and win ....against all the big stars of the era.

I think we've all done this before, probably yearly. However, still impressed with how many V-hulls, why is that? History? Good memories, nostalgia?

Nope but I would say he must be thinking of the wrong version of the boat!

Just my .02. I think American muscle 1 is clean, classic , and cool, I love the paint! I think #2 is the paint is too busy, with trends that are going to be well outdated within 1.5 years. Its almost like cig threw it together to compete with nor tech paint schemes. It says to me " oooh all you at the nor tech booth, look at me! I have way too many dips whoops and random **** with a few tribal flames thrown on me and my upholstery looks like captain America and wonder women blew their loads all over me!" But its just my .02. They are both boats that are beautiful and out of my price range....congrats to both lucky owners
