My First Cig
Just want to thank Phil for spending a few days with me. Pending a sea trial, this deal is done. And I think the sea trial will be unreal. Started boating in 28AT with twin 350s, then a 32AT with 500hps, and now a
1999 F2-17 carbon fiber race boat
fresh 500 hps soon to be bumped up
78mph
Brand new paint - you have to see it in the sun, pictures dont do it justice, it has metal flake in it.
Phil took the carbon fiber theme to extreme, even the stitching looks like carbon fiber. The paint and interior are brand new
Flying down the first week in april for sea trial, the bolster were not in when i was there last weekend.

Re: My First Cig
I just have to laugh sometimes at the level of work that Lip-Ship Performance acheives. That thing looks BETTER than when it was brand spankin new! It gets done right, or it doesn't get done at all. Awesome boat and awesome job by Lip-Ship. 
P.S. Phil if you read this, when are you going to throw Mauricio and the boys at that staggered gun you have for sale? That has some killer potential.

Re: My First Cig
Phil does so many little things right to make the boat perfect, allot of things that cigarette does with plastic pieces he put on metal, or beefed them up.
With this boat he kept the race and carbon fiber theme with the pleasure amenities that my wife needs. This is just what i wanted.

Re: My First Cig
Great looking boat Randy. Congrats!
I had actually considered this rig myself, but need the sunpad and my heart is set on a Tiger..... I've been dealing with some banks recently and am curious who you ended up financed with? Rate?
Best of luck....

Re: My First Cig
Ya Bajaneil, After loosing Victors Tiger, everything else seemed small and overpriced, but this cig has to be seen to be appriciated. I never would have bought this boat by looking at the pictures. I am so glad I went to phil.
All my cigs in the future will be Lip Ship

PS, Security Financial at LOTO 6% for 240mo since i am a two boat owner

Re: My First Cig
Congrats!! That thing is nice! I've been whoring on OSO what a stud Phil is lately so I don't think theres any doubt that I agree with you! 
We just took delivery of our boat Friday after wonderful dealings with Phil.
