Oh, and the new 39 looks just like an Outerlimits or a Nor-tech, where did the chisled classic offshore look go?

Put up your money
I will be up there next year
As for my lake comment in my last post
Any lake can get nasty at times.
The ocean is one place that is nasty a lot of the times.
IF you boat on the lake 7 days in a row you could have 1-2 feet seas as an avg.

I know it is hard but you got to admit they are sweet

Re: cigarette's new 39
Well this got totally out of hand, so this will be my final comment on this thread.
1 Where did you get the " anti Lip Ship 100 mph people" comment ? There's no anti anything, just a discussion of the realities of what hardware is available to ALL builders.
2. As far as my boat goes, you have NEVER heard me taunt anyone regarding it's performance, thats a Gladiator owner thing that I don't appreciate or understand. If you are curious as to how my boat performs I suggest you ask Mr. Lipschutz, we had a good time running with him and his brother when they brought there Cigs up to LEOPA year before last.
3. I think your statement regarding the typical water conditions on the Great Lakes is an indication of just how little you know about many things.
4. "put up your money" ......please, that is just plain embarrasing. Boating is about fun and comaraderie, I had never experienced a problem with other performance boaters untill this year at the LEOPA poker run where two "Lip Ship Cig Owners" literally taunted my wife and I for reasons unknow to both of us. It was our first experience like that and quite frankly took much of the fun out of the weekend, now you're doing it, what's up with you guys ?
I suggest you all remember why we spend ridiculous sums of money on this silly "sport", it's more about the people you meet and the friends you make than who's got what. I've made many, many friends from all over the country that I value yet never would have met if not for boating.
As for this group of Cig. owners that obviously hate my guts ( or is it my boat ?) I say enough, your taking the fun out of what used to be my biggest pleasure.
Out.

Re: cigarette's new 39
What the hell happened to this thread??? 
It's crap like this that keeps the real players in this "sport" off this website.
I've never met Jim but I have read his posts on here for years, he has always been a true gentleman and offered nothing but first hand real world experience.
Back to the 39 TG, How about a Lipship edition rigged with the 700 Zul's and Konrad 540's/Huber 925's
Now that would be a fast, relaible package without the outragous cost of #6 drives.
Kurt.

Re: cigarette's new 39
Holy crap, if I buy a Cig will I turn into an a$$hole too? I guess people can't have opinions on here anymore or they will be slammed by the Cig police. That is too bad, they make killer boats that speak for themselves without the need for the owners to come on here and slam everyone that doesn't own one!
Biggus, that sounds like a nice combo!

Biggus,
Is Konrad talking about comming out with a Bravo replacement? I have followed your Konrad thread pretty close. I have a 98 Top Gun with massaged 500's, and want to know of good alternatives in case my drives start to become an issue.
Thanks
Dan
P.S. Can we see some more pictures for crying out loud?!?!?!?!?

Hey WW, I own a 90mph V with bravos on it and didn't find anything
you said offensive at all.
Don't quite understand all the hostility towards a persons opinion. I have read many posts WW has been involved with and have great respect for his knowledge. To everyone else on the WW Rant whats the problem?
