I agree, I just don't understand why more people don't love these things. I think the 38' outdoes the Cig top gun big time, except for top speed.

I have heard from a couple of people that the 38'PP will outperform the 38' TG anyday. I have nothing against Cigs, just I think the PP's are just as good, if not better boats.

Thanks Morgan. It shouldn't be too hard to convince Ron and Anthony to come up. We're already talking about it. Should be a great summer!

Question: How many other true 33' boats with no steps or notch transom, straight hull, full cabin, can handle big water with stock 496HO can do near 80MPH and look as good doing it?

Hey JROMY:

I think these goggles are what you'll need. I'm going to see if I can have them made with a prescription. Copy & Paste below.

Well, it looks like the weather is going to be clear, so I'm doing some detailing tomorrow.

I had TNT make me an angled flush mount for my GPS that I was going to mount over the cabin door, that angles the GPS toward the driver's seat. As I'm thinking more and more about this, I'm thinking I may go and buy a big GPS and mount it right where the compass is, and either relocate the compass to the passenger side, or eliminate it completely. It seems like this is the way Cigarette has gone. The new Garmins seem to all have daylight viewable screens, but will I have a problem if the GPS is completely flat in front of my steering wheel?

JROMY - I don't think you can view it from that angle. My Standard Horizon has a day light screen and can't be seen from that angle. It would be a great spot for it if you can have a angeled bezel made for it. I'm thinking of going to a GPS speedo, its just easier. I changed my stearing wheel to the one like that cig and had the hand rails painted. I think it looks much better.
