Isn't that oxymoronic? Seems that if this model is as successful as everyone initially thinks it may be, there'd be an oversupply of late-model TG TS coming onto the market.

at Least I wont be by myself..

BTW 1000's and #6's isn't in my budget either. I just decided to live in my car and eat once a day. If Merc made an in betweener I could sleep in a bed.

Something about stuffing a 50 Hustler or something earlier in the day?

Rick. While you might be right on the average wave heights, I think us lake guys refer to rough as a combination of height and steepness. Robert has
seen 6-8 foot waves in the ocean many times but the pattern, height, spacing and steepness, together, make for a challenging performance enviroment completely different from the ocean. Even Lake Erie and Lake Michigan are very different because of the prevailing winds and depth of the water. That's all I ever refer to when I talk about how rough our "lakes" are.
BTW I love cigs, hardly know Philly, have great respect for his many years of experience, have no opinion one way or the other about Zul because of my lack of experience with their product, love going 100+ ( In my case 100.1) and f***ing hate bravo's. I do however love all the bravo butt owners on this board.

It completely depends on the driver, more than the drive. Bravo's work great, if you don't miss every wave on re-entry.

I have seen some real good drivers blow the piss out of bravo's. NK

Especially a beautiful woman like Mary who is already looking to switch boats and ride with LEOPAJM next year if merc's new motors are really the chit. Tools like you need to stay in the bilge. NK

Anything can be broken though.
