Highest quality boat build
Lets have a conversation about quality of craftsmanship. In your opinion, who makes the highest quality build? Is it Cigarette, with their classic lines? Outerlimits with their cutting edge hidden rigging? Nor-Tech? Who?

Haha. AJ- your boat is gorgeous. Hope you are enjoying it. |
The floor recognizes the gentleman from Missouri with the cardboard bustle and F-14 canopies..... LMAO. |
AJ, love that Powerplay rigging! Kevin at Progression does some nice rigging, and as a bonus, he numbers them. Example of phone conversation: Me: What does #43 do? Kevin: Who is this? Me: Ray with Joe’s old 24 Kevin: It controls (X) Me: How do you know that? Kevin: Because I built the boat. Me: Yeah, like 3 decades ago. Kevin: Aaaand? What’s your point? Call me back if I’m wrong. Talk to you next time . I also like that EVERYTHING is through-bolted. Until I decide to take something apart. Then, notsomuch, because I usually need an extra set of hands. https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...a66e73adb.jpeg |
Wiring is often a sore point in boats. Boat wiring in Thailand is usually copied from the domestic 220volt plan so you can see why I choose to import my boats from the U.S. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...b4e0fb2ce2.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...1a3e2cfb9a.jpg |

https://cimg6.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.off...fdce1eabda.jpg My 87 Top gun has great rigging especially for a 31 year old boat, nice and neat, everything works with no issues, the stringer system is built good and sealed properly resulting in a 31 year old boast with no rot, as far as brand new boats go, I am not sure whos the best but my buddy just built a new 52 Outerlimits and it looks perfect... all the Cigarettes look perfect aldso that I have seen. the worst wired boats I seen has been Baja, Formula and Scarab, huge mess... |
