1 I agree someone sticks a Zillion HP in an Antique hull and then goes on his head.. does not sound good for insurance rates..Perhaps I should call the company ..thanks Srobak for the Idea..

BillR - tell us more of what you found on that AT at Allpro. I'm sure there are more of us that would like to know what you saw and can compare it to. How was the rigging? gel work? paint work? quality of materials? quality of workmanship? ride quality and speed (what power)?

Let us know how you compare it to a cig when you find and ride one you like.

This topic came up a few years ago when Radio Active and another 37 were being built with 675's. Funny, I think both of the original owners sold there AT's.
I think you meant "sold THEIR AT's". I think that comment is lame. How many Cigs, Fountains, OLs are sold after one season of use ?
