Maybe a little bit of an apples to oranges question, but how did it compare to your old Gladiator? I'm a big fan of both boats.

Tough question. Similar in the fact that you "drive" both of them in comparison to the boat I have now. (39TG).
Out accelerates the Gladiator and stays in the water better. I'm still not 100% on the feel of the 5 step bottom on the newer OL's compared to the 4 step bottom my Legacy has. But I'm getting used to it. All in all, Cig VS. OL, I'll take the OL.

Interesting. I know it's not a 'fair' comparison, but how does the larger 39 TG compare?

The TG is bigger, heavier and roomier... Like Apples and Oranges or sort of like you are comparing a muscle car to a sport car.

Brian's right on. Like a super car vs. a muscle car. I'm liking the 39 a little more now then I did after buying it. I'll be back in an OL soon though....
