SKRAMER,
What would a guy have to do to break the front like that? I understand hitting a wall could do it, could something like that happen while underway? Hitting a wave?

So, Can you even be in a cabin when the fast boats are under way? Do people camp out in them?

Why a Gladiator?

If I am not mistaken there is no cabin in a Gladiator, so why do you have one? Are they just a fast big A boat to cruse around in? Do people ski behind them?

Re: Transom modification on 38´Cigarette

I love this question. Would like to add more though:
When you are doing such major work to the transom is it worth going ahead and boxing the bottom out like the newer TG's are? All at the same time?

Re: Diesel PU Engines in a Top Gun?

They are starting to do that in CA, (checking PU's) $500.00 fine in CA. for using the dyed fuel. Right now the fuel is only about 32 cents cheaper-hardly worth the hassel.

Re: Top Gun Engine Location?

Another question:
The CG (center of gravity). Where is the CG on the boat? Where is it in relation with the cockpit? Is there a book with all this cool stuff in it?
