I just think it looks like a Outerlimits or a Nor-tech, and if you go back and read all the posts, I'm not the only one to think that! I don't get why all these Cigarette guys are so sensitive to that. It's like when the Outerlimits guys went nuts when people made comments about the quality of paint jobs at the Miami boatshow last year. For some reason they feel the need to defend their choice of boat as being the BEST boat out there.

What is the "ballpark" number on these new 39's ???
Where is this one with the Zuls going ?
Whats the weight ???

Yes the Great lakes are very rough and fun as hell, but the ocean is the ocean, period. One or two weekends in the Biscayne Bay a Winter doesn't count.

I think what gets everyone from the great lakes riled up is when people who have not spent any real time here boating think it's always calm. I can't remember anyone saying it's rougher here. Ludacris is the right word for a sentiment like that. Just sometimes very rough. All fun in my book

Having the option of sitting down and having 2 handles to comfortably grip per person was my goal. OSG's boat was the inspiration.
The 39 we are staring at in the photo's is officially for sale. I am not sure of the weight, and don't want to give a ballpark on the price, as I'm sure it vary's widely depending on the chosen options.
It sure is purty. I will take a closer look in a few weeks.

The boat ran 101 plus a few tenths, with Neill and Phil 1/2 tank of fuel and 92 degrees / 90%
humidity in Miami. The boat was tested by Powerboat at Sarasota speeds and test results are unknown. You're gonna have to buy the magazine for results! Phil loves the boat and very proud of it. The motors are Zul 700s single four barrel. And the best of all this boat is available!!
