I wouldn't ride in it if you pulled it off!

and it would probably be cheaper to sell the straight bottom boat at repo prices and pay retail for a boat that was built stepped.

You mean this one I think Doug had more $$$$ in the bottom of that boat than the whole boat and power combined. I think Dave Goodman at Tiger Fiberglass and Marine in Marysville, MI did the bottom. I believe that this boat has the most checkered flags in Offshore racing 50+? It is also the Yardarm boat. Jeff Haylett (sp)
