Jim- really nice to meet you and the wife. You guys rock - enjoy the summer

John- I am selling because my family is not comfortable on the boat. It scares them to be on it, so I can not really enjoy the boat for what it's designed for. Its an amazing boat, but it's too much to have my kids and wife on. I need something a bit tamer for now.

It handles fantastic, yes loud and fast. This boat from 45mph to 90mph will literally throw you back in your seat. The acceleration is incredible.
I went from a 35 Outlaw with 496s to this... so for my wife and kids, its an entirely different experience. And one they don't feel comfortable in. The difference of 70mph vs.100-115mph on the water is massive. The boat is very stable, but you definitely know your doing triple digits.
Sound-wise... If you like the crackle and chest pound of a high performance engine, there is not a better sounding boat on the water than this. If you prefer a milder stock bigblock sound, this is not the boat for you. However, once you are under way, the boat is really not that loud in the cockpit. It has a really deep freeboard which helps.

I love this boat. I was on the very first 39 in Miami in '05. Best of luck with the sale!

So I will just throw this out there and completely understand if you say "no thanks"

I will give you $20k in cash and my scarab and my jet boat and my 84 dually custom pickup and my snowmobile and my camping trailer and my cat (she is only 15) and my kidney and.......
