It rides similar to a Top Gun, has a little more freeboard, and definitely has more cabin height.. Looks are in the eyes of the beholder. Good Luck.

I have never ridden on one , but it seems to ride bow high, that being said it does have a lot of room.

The deck tooling looks so sharp you could almost cut your fingers on the edges. The silver diesel boat that Powerboat mag tested is a beautiful example. There's something about that color that brings out sharp angles, but also flaws. That boat had no flaws that Teague could find and he said so.

The worst part about owning a 39 is knowing the 427 is available! The 427 is the best V bottom out there in my opinion!

No way on the ride.....ran side by side with a 07 TG and a 39V and the 39 bounced while the TG flew level at 75-80 in 3 ft sloppy seas. Both owners were very knowledgeable so it wasn't a trim/tab issue.

I dis-agree. The two 39 boats Ive been on rode great and flew level with no porpoise or bounce in 2'+ seas. It's not a 43 but rode similar to my 00 38ss TG in a straight run.... and get this.... when I turned the boat at 50mph it didn't slide out from under me... Also take into account were both boats staggered, bravo's or #6 drives. How much stuff in the cabin, and two different drivers.
